Thomas has been passionate about flying since his young age, when he was with his father flying remote controlled airplanes. He loves speed, adrenaline and piloting his planes and fast cars on the track. So the Grand Prix format with his Regatta start is perfect for him. We asked what helped him to reach international level, he replied: “I made many competitions until reaching the level” so it is all about work, training and do it again till you win!
Thomas enjoys flying the mountain ridges, from his great Italian Alps to the stunning mountain of Chile. He knows Pavullo playground from the World Gliding Championship in 2019 where he finished 3rd. He will be again a very interesting challenger in this year's Grand Prix Final.
