Pro Skater Turned Poker Player: The Raphael Brunis Story

  • 7 years ago
Raphael Brunis was once at the forefront of French skateboarding. From the beaches of Biarritz, France, where he started skating, to the sacred plaza of the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art (MACBA), Brunis has traveled the world thanks to his awesome wooden toy with four wheels. When making a living from skateboarding got tricky, his belated passion for poker took over and allowed him to keep advancing in life without feeling trapped, another way of avoiding a monotonous daily routine and a 9-to-5 grind.
