Proteam athletes - Matthias Dandois

Matthias Dandois

“Hey!” says our BMX flatland and street ninja.

Living between New York and Paris, Matthias spends a lot of time in airplanes, but that doesn’t stop him from grabbing some of BMX’s most impressive titles. His career started rolling back in 2002 and he was crowned World Champion for the first time in 2008, at the age of 19. Ever since, he put seven more of those in the pocket, together with dozens of other titles and mentions. Quite impressive right? We know. But, not as impressive as his fear of snakes though– ask the girlfriend, she surely has some good stories to share.

Self-nominated restless, stubborn, and clumsy, Matthias splits his creativity and imagination between the action sport and content creation, his other passion. Always searching for new places to ride, and pushing the boundaries of different riding styles, our progressive Proteam athlete surely is a perfect fit for Swatch.

Paris is a hundred cities inside of one. A mass of cobbled, bustling streets press up against the sprawling business district; the metro rumbles along beneath, while nature sits side by side with the city. Matthias Dandois keeps his cool there, and he shows us how to capture this under his wheels, making it all look easy.

Without a doubt, his home spots are on par with the rest of his Instagram profile, where we see him hopping from one incredible spot to the next, his dog at his side.
