Thomas Genon is a French rider who competes in slopestyle and Rampage. Of course, he is not limited to flipping and spinning! Genon can fill the role of a “shredit” rider too.
It is an infuriating fact that professional riders of one discipline often clean up at others too. Like they are already good at the on thing, save some talent for the rest of us!
