Cristian Losio : Inline Alpine Italian Champion

Interview

Hello, Cristian, can you introduce yourself?

Hello everyone ! My name is Cristian and I am a professional skater from the Italian National Team FISR. I am 28 years. In life besides skating I teach skating in my team and in several European teams, I’m also a personal trainer in a gym close to home where I collaborate …

How did you start to skate?

I started to skate as a kid and very soon I realized that skating was my life.

Why did you choose inline alpine ?

I chose Alpine rollers because I’m a former skier so it was the closest discipline

Have you tried other skating practices?

Certainly! I’ve been part of the powerslide Team in italy and I did marathons.

Tell us some words about your skates…

Now I use a Bont boot which is very hard and high, with a carbon shell. That allows me to get better in the curves. The support of the ankle is excellent.

Who are your sponsors?

My main sponsors are Bont Skates, Vitamaker, Ruroc, Legea, Gipron

What are your goals for 2017 World Roller Games?

My goals are to get into the top three in the senior men’s category and to  stand atop the podium in the team’s race.

What is your project for the future?

My project for the future is to spin the World with the support of my sponsors and to make my sport known to all the people I meet.

Free speech: if you want to add something…

I would like to add that I am the living proof that nothing can be achieved from now on if anything is desired … the only thing that makes the difference between a champion and a loser is only perseverance.
