    FRANÇOIS MATHY, RIDER FROM FATHER TO SON, BUT ALSO A TRUE FULL ATHLETE

    WHY THIS RIDER?

    François is first a story, the one of a rider, son of an Olympic Champion, who has received horses passion in heritage, as an evidence. Of a great simplicity, he is also an accomplished businessman, a fierce sportsman and an involved teacher who has known how to create his own system and make his passion a job. Sport is for him a true life philosophy. He is one of the few riders who can test our products on 5* show jumping as well as on ski pistes or on a bike raid. He literally went to the North Pole with our coats!

    WHY HORSE PILOT?

    Because they are the best! They are innovative and use technical materials that are perfectly adapted to our sport.

    FRANÇOIS' FAVOURITE

    The Element jacket: waterproof but also very well cut, enjoyable, light and it allows a great freedom of movements.

    ANY RITUAL?

    Polish my boots again just before entering the Grand Prix.

    A FACT LINKED TO HORSE PILOT

    Every year I organize a quite amazing ski travel, with some friends who are not riders. We go on ski hike so we do not have any ski lift. We have wonderful landscapes (Japan, Norway, Poland, Antarctic) and every time I bring my Horse Pilot clothes because I find them also adapted to theses conditions. During every trip, my friends are jealous of my Horse Pilot gear although they are not riders!

    A MANTRA?

    "We do not live only once, we live every day."
