THE ELITES OF THE TEAM OPEN TO ALL

By creating the team open to all in 2008, our desire was to create a real social network around our consumers and their passion for trail running. A discussion forum, a reward system, gatherings on races ... the Open Team immediately attracted hundreds of members who participated in the growth of the brand, creating a real community of runners. Within this team we also have elite runners who bring us their expertise and knowledge.

Our goal? To "Share the trail running experience"

"I feel that I belong to a whole, invested and considered within the brand, especially for the product development part. More than bibs and results, there is a real human side. I can try the products, give my opinion ... I love the new collection, especially the shoes, fast and dynamic, everything I was looking for!"

Christophe le Saux

"I am very proud to be part of Team Raidlight because it is a French brand that was created 20 years ago by Benoît Laval a trail enthusiast. Today I'm a little less competitive because I'm more on the adventure side. This allows me to test the Raidlight equipment to its limits and to give feedback as a technical adviser in order to come up with a perfect product designed for bigger adventures".

BENOIT LAVAL

I've been running since I was 10 years old, I've been on the Trail since 1998. Since my studies I have developed a taste for entrepreneurship. As a textile product designer, I built my life around these passions, with the creation of Raidlight in 1999. The high-level sports achievements were built up in parallel with these activities, with races on all terrains, a selection in the French Trail team, and many challenges such as the Barkley and victories around the world.
