Rollerski: Guillemette Baisle crowned French U18 freestyle sprint champion in Autrans
At the same time as the U16 finals, the U18s were also competing in the skate sprint of the French Rollerski Championships, early this afternoon in Autrans (Isère).
And there were no surprises, as it was the two winners of the qualifiers who took victory and, therefore, the coveted gold medal. In the women’s race, Annécian Guillemette Baisle beat her committee team-mate Lison Brouart to take the laurels , while Aindenne biathlete Eline Curnillon took bronze.

“The start of the day was a bit complicated, it was particularly hard to get back into the swing of things after the delay [an injury to a cross-country skier disrupted the programme, editor’s note], but it’s really pleasing [to win],” she explained to Nordic Magazine afterwards.
At the foot of the podium were Louna Remillon, Zoé Bray and Taïna Buisson.
