Downhill Champion Amaury Pierron's
Rollercoaster of a Season
The year 2020 has been a challenge for the whole world, flipping business, travel, and sports on their heads. Racing has been largely postponed and canceled, leaving athletes with extra time for different projects. ENVE athlete Amaury Pierron has released a handful of exciting videos over the summer, despite injuries and travel restrictions.
His mind-melting edit promoting the new Commencal Supreme Mullet edition (29” front wheel and 27.5” rear) is a must-watch. The sound of shredding tires is deafening throughout the video:
Amaury joined the rest of the Commencal crew in a fast-paced, fun-filled mashup of antics in “CZ3”, showing off the new Commencal Clash. Be prepared for home-made hot tub cars and general tomfoolery.
In August, Amaury suffered a hand injury during the French Cup DH race at Alpe d’Huez, which left him sitting out of the race. After a couple short weeks off the bike, he came back to race the French Championships, filming an incredible course preview during practice.

He ultimately withdrew before finals due to another more serious crash and injury, an unfortunate end, as the pace he carries in his course preview leads to believe that he would have been a top contender for the championship. Amaury is out for the 2020 season to focus on healing, and ENVE wishes him a quick recovery.
