After getting a Bachelor of sciences in USA, Julie decides to go to Dominican Republican with Antoine Joubert (her boy friend !) to practice windsurf as much as she can. This is when both of them discover kite and stop windsurf. After 5 intensive months of kite, Julie goes back to the states and enters competition : Velocity Games, Texas, to get read of material, at least!!!
Sponsored by Globeriderkites in 2003, Julie participates to US competitions and to PKRA in Dominican Republican.
It is in January 2004 that the couple moves to Puerto Rico, in San Juan. « More it went, more sponsors where blooming at thje same rate as my technical skills ! I decided then to go further in competition ! »
In September 2004, Flexifoil becomes her partner.
Julie’s projects : « be 1st on PKRA ! »
Julie’s style : « I like the men style…where you charge but with elegance so i like doing it too ! Girls can do it as well as gays but they need more time for they are not as strong asn because they are a little more fearful too ! »
Sponsors: Flexifoil, Kronic kite boards, Da kine.
