BIO
Alexandre Bicrel, comes from the South West of France and is 21 years old. Alex started his connection to the ocean at the age of 7, when his dad put him on a windsurf board. Then from windsurfing, Alex started surfing and stand up paddling. But it’s only at the age of 15 that he started competing and racing on a stand up paddle board.
Alex joined the NSP family in 2017 and the dream kept going. He has always looked up to and gets his inspiration from Kai Lenny, who just keeps amazing all of us on the water and by the looks of some of the videos and images coming out of France, Alex is not far behind.
Apart from being a sportsman, Alex is also a business school student in the French Alps. Not knowing how the future is going to evolve, one thing is for sure, Alex wants to successful in his studies, to keep improving on his foiling, winging and surfing, and to enjoy every single moment spent in the water.
