I was born the 16th January 1975 in Milan;
while studying (aerospace engineer) and later working (Curriculum Vitae), I spent most of my time practising:

ROLLERBLADING

I began in the 1993, for several years I had been rollerblading almost everyday, specialising in the high-jump discipline, namely take a 60 cm high ramp, a pair of roller and try to fly as high as possible, but watch out for the landing!
Since the 1997 I practise also slalom\ free style (to twist the legs around 20 cones) and, currently, free style and speed slalom are the discipline I'm investing most of my time when I wear a pair of roller on my feet. I did, and I still do, exbitions throughout Italy (also in Sweden...yeah!) sponsored by well-known brands. I promise you, it's a lot of fun!

 

ICE-SKATING

As much fond as for roller, I'm for ice-skates. I n wintertime I'm used to ice-skate in the frozen lakes in the north of Italy, and in Sweden, during my one year stay, I spent every evening in the ice ring in downtown: When I ice-skate I love hearing the sound of the scratched ice breaking the silence

 

KAYAKING

The kayak has been a kind of first sight love, since I tried one in the 1985 I've never given up being fond of it. I've kayaked a lot in the northern Italy lakes, moreover sometimes I join a white water kayak team (I mean kayaking in the rivers) and this is really fun, even I'm still a beginner!!! Now (2007) I live nearby a lake, and it takes a shot to have it on the water. Hence I kayak everytime I wish; this is the best I could get!!!!!

 

CLIMBING

It's few years (since 2000) I'm climbing but, even I'm still a beginner, I love it. Actually I like the challenge of overcoming a vertical cliff and the freedom you feel when there's no floor under you. Living among the wildlife let me to climb even in the evening after the work

If you're not bored to death yet and you want to know more about me read my Curriculum Vitae.
