"I like speed skating because it is very similar to roller skating, the sport I have been practising since a young age. My mother practised figure skating and my dad did rink hockey. My grandmother was a cashier at a roller skating venue in Gujan-Mestras. I became immersed into the world of skating from an early age. What I liked about speed skating is the sporting adventure, very different from my personal and structured cocoon that I have been living since my childhood, which meant getting out of my comfort zone, and especially finding another taste of training without leaving my passion for roller skating."
Alexis Contin, FRA
