Mentor(s): My main mentor is surely Matteo "Gaddoz" Gaddoni! It's only thanks to him if I could became a true freestyler... But also Clay Collerà gave me a huge help!

Started playing: July 2005

How I started playing: In the net I found some amazing videos and I was really surprise: so I learnt delay, staying for 2 weeks under a tree, trying and trying! After a couple of months I met Gaddoz, who taught me the art of freestyle frisbee!
