THE PILOT - Amaury Pierron

Спорт

Two World Cup Downhill Championship titles with a space of four long years between them, connected by the resilience of one man. "The Pilot" is a story about Amaury Pierron.
From his explosion onto the scene at the highest level and his journey through rehabilitation from bad injuries, to his recovery in 2021 and his return to racing after nearly two years off… Discover the story of Amaury and the road he travelled to win the World Cup DH overall for a second time and make 2022 his best season yet.
With "The Pilot” by the Sleeper Collective team, you’ll be riding alongside the best (pilot) in the world - Amaury Pierron.
"I've always loved watching athlete docuseries and always thought it would be great to do one some day. It was when Sleeper Collective were filming me on the DH World Cups last year that we decided to go for a longer format. It became an important project for myself, Sleeper Collective and COMMENCAL. It was cool to have the Premiere at the cinema in Andorra, where I live and train all year round. Can’t wait for you see that too!" - Amaury Pierron.
Rider: Amaury Pierron

    C'est pour ça qu'on aime ce sport ! Nous avons découvert tout le processus de création du V5 avec "This Is Us" (au passage incroyable). Maintenant un focus sur Amaury Pierron dans ce film / documentaire que dis-je chef-d'oeuvre ! On passe part tous les états de la joie, à la tristesse de voir que mentalement Pierron n'est pas au top et qu'il essaie de tout donner malgré tout. L'une des meilleurs partis selon moi c'est l'étape de World Cup à Gets ! Ayant été spectateur sur place, juste en revoyant les images toutes les émotions qui remonte c'est fou ! Un triplet français sur cette étape ce n'est dû jamais vu ! La folie, la fierté que d'être Français et de voir tous ces athlètes sur le podium. (Merci à David Douillet d'avoir essayé de décrédibiliser notre sport...) Une réalisation by Sleeper Collective des artistes dans le domaine ! Un montage d'une perfection folle. Bref tout est fou dans ce doc merci à tous de nous faire vivre ceci. Un grand bravo à toute l'équipe Commencal pour pousser encore plus loin chaque fois ce sport. ENG : That's why we love this sport! We discovered the whole V5 creation process with "This Is Us" (incredible, by the way). Now we focus on Amaury Pierron in this film/documentary, or rather masterpiece! We go through all the states of joy, to the sadness of seeing that mentally Pierron isn't at his best, and that he's trying to give it his all in spite of everything. One of the best parts for me was the World Cup stage in Gets! Having been a spectator there, just looking back at the images brings back all the emotions, it's crazy! A French triplet on this stage is unheard of! It's madness and pride to be French and to see all these athletes on the podium. (Thanks to David Douillet for trying to discredit our sport...) Produced by Sleeper Collective, artists in their field! Insanely perfect editing. In short, everything in this doc is crazy. Thank you all for bringing this to life. A big bravo to the Commencal team for pushing this sport even further every time.
