JUSTIN FOUQUE
ARTISTE VIRTUOSE DU BMX.

 
At Kaporal, we have a saying: "never insignificant, always flamboyant". We showcase individuals who step outside the box, and own their difference. "Outside the box" is our new meeting place, in the form of portraits of the people who inspire us. These individuals are from different worlds: sport, fashion, art, volunteer groups... and they are shifting the rules within their respective fields. We love it. Working in partnership with Kourtrajmé Marseille, the film school that trains new talents, we present to you the first gallery of portraits.

In this second episode, discover Justin Fouque, a “small bike” professional called BMX. Justin has always liked to surpass himself. His passion for thrills led him to climb on a BMX at the age of 14. From then on, he will never rest his foot on the ground again, and will become a professional when he comes of age.

A meteoric rise that the Vans brand was quick to spot during a competition in 2007. A double backflip and a few years later, he created his own association “Massilia Freestyle BMX” intended to promote this practice in his region. Defining himself as an "artist rather than an athlete", Justin has done BMX, much more than a sport. A source of travel, encounters and inspiration, the young man draws his values ​​and his creativity from this discipline which has become a way of life in its own right.
