At 14, kayaking Mathis Negrrit is the best in his category. He begins the discipline at 9 years old and will participate on July 6 in the French championship.
Kayak and Mathis Negritus is a beautiful love story. Since his 9 years, the young Marie-Galantais have been running on the water. Small, it was for him the beginning of an adventure that has changed in passion today, which does not stop strengthening over time. His credo: to seize his kayak to slide on these dreams but also to strengthen these achievements.
On July 6, the young Mathis as 20 other kayakers in the region are expected in Libourne in the South West for the French Kayak championship. Race, stretching and bodybuilding, Mathis affines while waiting for his training.
I do cardio and get my joints. There is a whole protocol.

This is a whole obstacle course for training at a run to hope to win the victory. And at 14, the young boy is already looking, the mind of a real sportsman and is the pride of his coach.
Mathis started kayaking with us and there, he is selected for the French championship with the Minimes of Guadeloupe team online. It is on 500 -meter routes that they make competitions.

In training, you have to keep the pace. His coach follows him on his boat to follow his evolution as closely as possible. Mathis asks for it, clings, and paddle faster and faster.
At the Guadeloupe Speed Championships, he made a good time, even a championship chrono.
