A rider since her youngest age, Fanny Guerdat-Skalli first got on a pony at 3 years old. It was her mother who passed on this passion to her and encouraged her to compete at a high level. At 14, Fanny Skalli participated in her first European Championships with her pony Milford de Grangues.
WHY THIS RIDER?
Horse Pilot: Fanny joined the Horse Pilot adventure from the very beginning; she's an integral part of the brand—rider, product advisor, and even model! A rider and woman in her own right, devoted to her horses but also a competitor since childhood, Fanny makes no compromises, neither on her career nor on her passions and ambitions—she gives herself the means to succeed. For all these reasons, we're proud to support her in her daily life and to be by her side!
WHY HORSE PILOT?
Fanny Skalli: Horse Pilot, because we've become a big family over the several years I've been working with this brand, and in my eyes the products are very technical and comfortable, which is extremely important in our equestrian sport.
FAVORITE PRODUCT
FS: Without hesitation, the Suntech Polo, although I must admit the X-Design Riding Breeches give it some competition.
A RITUAL?
I don't have any particular ritual!
AN ANECDOTE RELATED TO HORSE PILOT
FS: Horse Pilot is the first brand for which I shot an entire collection. I did 2 campaigns, one in 2015 when I joined the team and one in 2016. Guillaume & Aurélien always had great ideas for these shoots, including throwing buckets of water on our heads to demonstrate the waterproofing of their products.
