Maxime Livio, Respect and rigor in everyday life
It was at the age of 3 that Maxime started riding ponies. From the age of 8, he went out in show jumping competition and at 11 he switched to horseback to start eventing in the Amateur category with his trainer Didier Mayoux. In 2004 and 2005, Maxime joined the French Junior team and became European vice-champion by team and then progressed to the Pro Elite level.
Why this rider?
Maxime shares our vision of equestrian sports and perceives the rider as a full sportsperson, for whom the daily training is decisive in the search of the final performance. He has a global vision of his discipline and he is open to every side of his sport as a high-level athlete but also in the work and commercialization of his horses, as well as in the teaching and in the training.
Why Horse Pilot?
Because it is a French brand that brings a lot of technique and modernity to this sport, rooted in tradition.
Maxime's Favorite
It is very hard to choose a firm favorite but I particularly like: the coat Fahrenheit, the raincoat lntégral , the show jackets and the show shirts.
Any ritual?
Before getting on my horse's back, whatever the class is, I always take the time to shut my eyes and visualize the course.
A fact linked to Horse Pilot
I have never been very fan of riders who ride with a show shirt on the cross country and Horse Pilot has changed my mind for the comfort and the lightness brought by the shirts.
A mantra?
"There's no problem, only solutions. If it's not obvious right away, you must keep on searching it."
