Since Vouilloz/Gracia time, kids in France are building jumps, tracks everywhere possible. Spent countless teenagers' hours riding with friends and having fun whatever the weather. I think that riding culture from a young age explains partially Frenchie success.

That's where you're wrong ! There's not that much real trail in France, most of them are totally illegal... So we just find some forests and build jumps, and trail to go down, to go high as much as we can. I built nearly 4 different trails, and the authorities were never behind my friends and me... But we do it regardless, because if we don't, no one's gonna do it for us
