Born on May 4th, 1976, French alpine skier, skier-cross, snowboarder, freerider, base jumper and surfer, Enak Gavaggio simply loves anything which enables him to slide. Enak started to ski at 8 years old and his career’s hit list could make most people blush: 7 skier-cross medals at the X-Games, 5x skier-cross WORLD CUP WINNER, 5 medals at the World Championship, and a 4th and 5th place at the Freeride World Tour Championship.
His professional career as athlete ended in 2010 at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. Since 2014, Enak has played the well-known role of “Rancho”, a staggered vintage character in a skiing universe themed web show. Now President of Les Arcs Freeski Academy, Enak is known and appreciated both by his peers – for his carrier results and strong personality. A famous and influent face in the French Mountain Industry, he is the only one who is so admired by any kind of winter sports athlete.
