VIRGINIE SAMSON
BIO
Virginie Samson came to paddling in 2011 and fell in love from the get-go. Paris has no real open water so in order to evolve her paddling, Virginie moved to Cannes on the South Coast of France. Being able to paddle in a wide range of conditions and a strong local paddle scene allowed her to improve her paddling to elite status.
