Extreme Sports Channel Spotlights Inline Skater Taïg Khris

LONDON: Champion inline skater Taïg Khris is to front six hour-long specials for Chello Zone’s Extreme Sports Channel.

Taïg Khris: Extreme Adventure is co-produced by Extreme Sports Channel and Puzzle Media. Taïg Khris made headlines last year when he attempted the highest ever jump in inline skates off the Eiffel Tower. In Taïg Khris: Extreme Adventure he travels around the world relying on his athletic skills, encountering a variety of harsh terrain and climates. The series will be broadcast across Extreme Sports Channel’s feeds in the U.K., France, Poland and EMEA later this year.

Tim MacMullen, the general manager of Extreme Sports Channel, said: “Taïg’s been a face on the channel for a number of years with The Taig Show. As an X Games gold medal winner he’s got all the credibility and authenticity our viewers love. His ‘try anything’ attitude and willingness to get stuck-in is inspirational and makes this just the kind of entertaining travel adventure show that fits the channel.”
