Simply a legend

Between 1987 & 2005 this man set new standards in whitewater slalom kayak. His past record shows that talent combined with hard work can lead to exceptional results. In 1990 and 1992 he won the overall World Cup. He became Olympic Champion in Barcelona 1992 and took the Bronze medal at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. He has also won numerous European and World Championship medals. What really distinguished this exceptional athlete from others, was, and still is, his willingness to teach newcomers how to become a winner. 
Pierpa was one of the first in the World Cup events competing in sandiline gear and also one of the first members of the SandiEquipe. We have worked with him since the mid-90's and throughout the years his understanding and advice of what could be improved always led us to useful new solutions. After retiring from professional competition in 2005 he became a coach with the Italian team. Even now, sandiline still supports him with the gear he needs for his "free time" paddling. He still deserves the best, and at the same time, we still need his wise advice. Miticooo Pierpa!
