Video: Converting to Enduro
Alizée Baron isn't only part of the French Olympic female skicross team; She is also an excellent mountain bike rider as you can see with this video. She makes the most of the summer to train hard on her bike and have fun on the trails of her local resort, Orcières Merlette in France.
This video is part of the Focus311 series produced by the talented "Oqamy Visuel". Other episodes were filmed with Kilian Bron, Maurin Trocello and Maxime Peythieu, other French riders of the M.I.A Santa Cruz team from France.
Only taking part in a few Enduro races this season, Alizée still made a great impression in the French scene, winning both the Enduro Des Belleville and the Maxiavalanche at Orcières Merlette.
With the winter not far away, Alizée makes the most of the autumn to ride her new Nomad before the snow settles and she has to concentrate on her very promising skicross career. We wish her good luck for the 2014/2015 ski season and hope to see more results and videos from her on her bike next year once the snow has melted!

En réalité je pense qu'Alizée a sur le vélo les reflexes de skieurs qui consistent à esquiver les bosses en les absorbant d'instinct avec les genoux, cela donne effectivement l'impression de "pumping", mais tel n'est pas le cas. Elle ne bataille pas avec le vélo, elle se laisse porter avec un bon contrôle de trajectoire.
Half of the reason I watch some of these videos is because I'm trying to figure out what they're wearing. And it seems like 90% of it isn't sold anywhere.
but okay...
