Julien Bouyer grew up on a small island in France called ïle de Ré and was thrust into the island lifestyle, starting sailing, surfing and windsurfing from a young age. He tried SUP when he was 14 years old when the sport made its debut in France and took to it seamlessly due to his extensive list of accomplished water sports. Julien has proved himself to be one of the best in the world when he finished 3rd in the 2018 APP Gran Canaria Pro-Am, sharing the podium with some of the biggest names in the industry. Outside of SUP, Julien pursues just about every water sport you can think of which he practices with his brother Camille, where they create videos for their YouTube channel.
