The event
Organization
Simon Clément
President
Simon has participated at the 24h since the very begining. In fact, he was the first to put together teams (Les Clowns) that will skate and raise money for the causes supported by the event. Early on he grasped all the potential for growth and fun that the event carried.
His implication grew over the years so as the number of Clowns. He decided to get even more involved and joined the 2007 organization team as Marketing Director. He managed to act as an excellent negotiator of contracts, a site builder, and even waste manager... while still finding the energy to participate as an elite skater with the Clowns! Let see what he can do in 2010!
Dominique Clément
Executive Vice-President
Skater since the very fist year of the 24hrs. With Simon, they build the clown teams every years. He is at the origin of the fund raising, seeking for sponsors, team clothing's designs. He is involved in the 24hrs organization since 2009 being treasurer and this year the Executive Vice-Président. Dominique participated at the 24h du Mans in France and with this experience he knows the potential of the 24hrs Roller Montréal and want to participate to his success. Live together with friends the 24hrs Inline Montréal : A passion came alive!
Mohamed Ariba
Treasurer
At the beginning in 1995, the roller was to get to school. With times I quickly realized that the roller was a real sport. I've got the opportunity to touch all side of the roller, but the speed skating is the one that makes me alive. I wanted to transmit my passion and allow more people to discover this sport so I became a coach. Certified by the Roller Skating Federation in France, I teach and animate groups from all ages to school classes and roller clubs. I had the chance to participate to the 24hrs du Mans and the 24hrs Inline Montreal. Co-founder with Simon of the club Taz Vitesse, I keep working to promote and develop the roller in Montreal. My first career as an accountant now gives me the chance of helping the 24hrs organization team with my knowledge and my sport spirit.
Julie Robert
Logistic Manager
This is my sixth participation to the 24hrs Inline Montreal and it is with great pleasure that I accepted to contribute to the organization of this unique sporting event. Great outdoor group event, amazing inline skating, team spirit and guaranteed fun, these are the words that describe my undertaking of this challenge over the years. I wish us all a happy seventh anniversary!
Nathalie Larouche

Always there to help! Without her, the roller wouldn't be the same in Montreal.

Official Photographer
Passionné par l'image depuis toujours, je suis un photographe qui se spécialise dans le portrait et la photographie sportive.
La complexité du mouvement et l'expression du corps humain en pleine action me fascinent.
C'est pourquoi je désire partager ma vision de ces athlètes qui nous montrent leur détermination, la douleur qu'ils ressentent dans tous leurs membres ainsi que le plaisir qu'ils éprouvent lorsqu'ils pratiquent un sport ou une activité sportive.
