for me to get back to my previous level, takes a lot of motivation and suffering. But I always trust in my shot. GRIP: Before, we were talking about the Tontons’ bet on the USA. It seems that you’re investing individually instead of doing it as a team. Why this choice? Tavarez: In this phase, we cannot yet evolve as a team in the USA because we don’t have the budget for it. We hope that one day we will and that we will be
able to conquer America. (Laughs) GRIP: In 2010 the Tontons won Div. 1 in Orlando. What’s it like to win the best and biggest event in the world? Tavarez: We were very happy to have won that event. It was fantastic because we had fans in the stands that motivated us. We had a great event and were rewarded with victory. I think we were all very proud to bring this trophy back to France.
