Florent was born in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rennes Rennes], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France France]. He grew up in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montauban-de-Bretagne Montauban-de-Bretagne], a small town near [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rennes Rennes]. It’s there where he started playing [[SMK]] around 1994/1995, reaching respectable times of 1’02”00 and 12”30 on [[Mario Circuit 1]] ([[PAL]] [[Non-NBT]]) back then. The internet era had not taken off by then yet, so these achievements were reached without being aware of competition elsewhere and without watching any strategy videos. After these initial results he did not play [[SMK]] again until 2005.

It was not before long until Florent learned about the art of mushroom generated [[Long Boosts]] (LBs) and quickly specialized himself in this technique. This specialization would soon become a fruit bearing one, allowing him to hit his first ever GP WR, taking down Camille Batier’s (a French karter also known as Don Camillo and mostly known for his GP skills) [[MC1]] flap, with an LB aided record of 7”76. Later on he would drive countless more LB involved GP WR’s and also create a couple of video compilations demonstrating the use of LB’s nicely, one of them can be found [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x29bcbfgUUk here].

Florent’s first GP WR came right before the start of the [http://www.championnat-smk.org/CDF2005.php CDF 2005] (which was the first CDF he participated in). Because his name was on the list of participants, many people were wondering who this new kid on the block was: the newcomer who beat one of Don Camillo’s most prolific WR’s. This created a fuzz amongst the karters present and they could soon observe a new star in the making. Outside of [[Mushroom Cup]] GP and some Battle Mode practice, Florent was relatively unexperienced playing against other players, but he still performed quite well, ending on an 11th position in the overall ranking of the tournament. He almost caused an upset by beating [[Harold Christensen]] in the Battle Mode quarter final. At this point in time Harold was already an accomplished Battle Mode player and well known for his skills in this mode; in other words a clear favourite to win that tournament. In his match against Harold however, Florent was leading 5-3, much to the shock of the karter’s watching. In the end Harold’s experience proved a little too much as he came back to proceed to the semi final with a 7-5 win.

In the summer of 2006, the webmaster of the [http://www.mariokart64.com/smk SMK Time Trial site], [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami Çetin], hosted a world wide kart meet in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croydon Croydon], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England England]. Florent attended this event and this was the first time he travelled outside of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France France] to meet fellow karters. He wore a T-shirt specifically designed for this event, a gesture that was greeted with much enthusiasm by the other karters. At this point he had already become a strong force to be reckoned with in [[SMK]], but he still lacked a little experience against the likes of [http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre] and [[Sami]], thus losing to them marginally in Match Race by 12-8 scores respectively. He did however pull out a 10-10 tie against the [[PAL]] [[Time Trial]] Champion at that time, [[Karel van Duijvenboden]].

Two months later in Paris, Florent signed off on another momentous year with a winning performance at the French Championship. Because of his success in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norway Norway], Florent entered the [http://www.championnat-smk.org/CDF2007.php CDF of 2007] as one of the two clear favourites to win. It was expected that the overall win would either go to [http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre L'Hoëst] or him. The rivalry between the two became clear from the very start as they faced eachother in the final of the first event, which was the [http://www.championnat-smk.org/TT2007.php TT tournament]. This final took place on one of his favourite tracks, [[KB1]], but the pressure got to him as he hit some weed and ended in 2nd place with [http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre] grabbing the first gold medal of that [http://www.championnat-smk.org/ CDF] with a clean race. Florent made his candidacy for the overall win clear early on though. In the Match Race tournament he faced [http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre] in the final again, but this time the gold medal went to Florent after a convincing 11-7 in his favour. The Battle Mode tournament saw another [http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre] versus Florent final. The level on display was extremely high and to this day Florent claims that the level he reached in this match was the highest he has ever reached as an [[SMK]] player. Despite Pierre’s strong resistance and fine form, Florent proved to be an unstoppable force from now on, winning the tournament in style with a 11-4 victory. Florent was comfortably in the lead in the overall rankings now, with his best mode (GP) still ahead. Only a miracle could stop him from winning his first CDF from that point onwards. When Florent reached the final of the GP tournament ([http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre] was knocked out at this point), he was already certain of the overall victory. But as a true champion he gave it his best once more to also claim the title in the GP final in a thrilling early morning match against [[Nicolas Haufmann]] (also known as El Nico on the boards). Nicolas could not prevent Florent from reaching a landslide 5-1 victory, meaning that Florent succesfully crowned his [http://www.championnat-smk.org/ CDF] with another gold medal. Rarely had the [http://www.championnat-smk.org/ CDF] seen such a display of dominance from one karter, winning all the multiplayer modes with big scorelines plus reaching the final of the TT event as well.

Because of all those countries being represented, the list of participants was historically high, reaching a total of 39 entrants. With his biggest rival [http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre] now being retired from multiplayer SMK, Florent entered the tournament as the big favourite. New rivals emerged though, the American [http://speedrunwiki.com/Drew_Blumfield Drew Blumfield] would prove to be the surprise package of this edition, both in his behaviour and his extreme karting abilities. Florent’s main focus was on winning the [[Time Trial]] event, which he labeled his [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Open Roland Garros], seeing it was the only mode where he didn’t win a gold medal yet.

In 2009, the [http://www.championnat-smk.org/ CDF] evolved into its final form, that of a World Championship (CDM, abbreviation for Championnat du Monde, which means World Championship in French). The event was open for and advertised towards the global SMK population and in the end karters from two additional continents participated. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_america North America] was represented by [http://speedrunwiki.com/Drew_Blumfield Drew Blumfield] from the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USA USA] once again and this time [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/south_america South America] was represented as well by the Champion of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil Brazil], [[Guilherme Arantes]]. Of course, much like in 2008, karters from throughout [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe Europe] were present,  including karters from the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netherlands Netherlands], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switzerland Switzerland], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spain Spain], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/england England], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/germany Germany]. Of course the vast majority of the participants came from the hosting nation [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France France] itself.

Of course the vast majority of the participants came from the hosting nation [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France France] itself.

As [http://speedrunwiki.com/Pierre_L%27Hoest Pierre] was still in retirement, Florent was expecting the most fierce competition to come from SMK’s Godfather [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami], who had been training on-line through [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Console_emulator emulators] for months. [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] himself had high expectations of this rivalry as well, judging by a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbT16aFfFvI&fmt=18 trailer] he published in the week prior to the event. It turned out both of them were right, as this year’s tournament essentially was a historically thrilling race between the two, starting right from the beginning and lasting all the way until the very last match. In the [[Time Trial]] event Florent and his opponent [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] both reached the final with some strong performances. This year the final was raced on three tracks and a wall crash on the final one, [[BC2]], meant that Florent could not take the gold medal home this time. He was especially focused on Match Race this time around though and much like in previous years he reached the final with relative ease. As expected, he had to face [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] in the final again, in what would become one of the most memorable matches in [http://www.championnat-smk.org/ CDF] history. To most onlookers it appeared that Florent was in control of the proceedings, albeit very slightly at most. However, thanks to a somewhat lucky 5 lightning streak (Florent only had 1 to compensate) [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] managed to bring the match all the way to the wire. With both players tied on 10-10, the final race on [[VL1]] had to bring the decision. With both players under immense pressure, it was Florent who missed his vital zoomstart and [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] won the gold medal as a result. This was undoubtedly one of the most emotional moments in the careers of both karters; Florent broke down in tears afterwards. He later came back on what had happened stating that this had been his way to handle this sensitive moment of extreme disappointment; of course his reaction was also driven by the unlikely circumstances that had contributed to the final score.

== SMK World Championship 2010==

To still have a shot at winning the overall title, Florent had to rank above [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] in both of the remaining events. After having been eliminated by an unleashed [http://speedrunwiki.com/Drew_Blumfield Drew Blumfield] in the Battle Mode semi final, Florent cruised to a 9-6 victory against [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] in the bronze medal play-off. This meant that with only GP left, he still had a clean shot at gaining the World title. With GP being his strongest mode, he made short work of all of his opponents and reached the final, suffering only 2 cup losses during the entire tournament. [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] followed a similar path to the final, losing only a single cup and drawing one. For the first time in history the Championship was decided by the very last match; absolutely everything was on the stakes. During the final Florent reached out for his maximum level once more and crushed [http://speedrunwiki.com/Sami Sami] 5-1, in what could only be described as a devastating tour-de-force. This meant he was crowned the [[Super Mario Kart]] World Champion of 2009. He later claimed this to be the most important victory of his career, as he really had to earn it through a hard and lasting battle.

Therefore, Florent started the Time Trial one-try competition as a warned man. The top 4 of the PAL Time Trial rankings (Karel, Pierre, Sami and Florent) found themselves facing each other in the semi final. Florent and Karel came out victorious and had to battle for gold, in a repeat of the 2008 TT final. Karel crashed once during his BC1 race, Florent did not, which meant he bagged the first gold medal of the CDM 2010. Sami lost his bronze medal play-off to Pierre in the little Final on KB1, giving Florent a nice margin in the lead before Match Race started. In the aftermath of last year’s historical Match Race final, Florent had expressed on various occasions that alongside winning the overall title, regaining the Match Race gold medal would be his main goal during the CDM 2010. However, Florent faced the threath of early elimination in the quarter final against Time Trial World Champion Karel van Duijvenboden. Being one of the outsiders for the gold medal in this mode, Karel proved to be a very tough opponent for Florent; in fact the Dutchman even received two match-points  at a score of 6-5. After a thrilling final lap on GV2 with a last ditch mushroom platform-jump effort, Florent subverted the first of those matchpoints miraculously. The decisive match had an even more surprising climax; when it looked like Karel was cruising for the win in the final lap of MC1,  faith decided otherwise as Florent received a lightning from his very last item pick-up. After last year’s drama in the big final, lady luck was finally smiling Florent in the face; this escape was of monumental value for him, as a Match Race quarter final exit might have meant losing the overall title, when considering Sami’s prowess accross all modes. Instead, Florent progressed to the Match Race final to once again meet with his big rival Sami; a chance for revenge. However, Florent was facing a big defecit early on in the match, not appearing as sharp as usual. When Sami was closing in on match-point, Florent gathered all his strength to mount a huge comeback and provide a close match, but it proved just too late to prevent Sami from winning 11-9.
