Biography

He took up skiing when he was 4 years old. Later on, he started cross-country skiing, but after having tried the shooting range, he decided that the biathlon was the most spectacular and enticing sport of all. Sochi 2014 and the Olympic bronze medal in the medley relay were highlights of his career. When he is away from the slopes, he likes hang-gliding with his friends, including in tandem. He also loves mountain running, and both are pastimes which enable him to recharge in contact with nature
