The French born Canadian started throwing in 1981 and is the only thrower to participate in every Boomerang World Championship. He has been on both French and Canadian teams, very often as team captain.
He founded Wallaby Boomerangs in 1993 and successfully is selling his boomerangs since then.
When he moved to Montreal from France he founded the Montreal Boomerang Club. It was the defacto Canadian Boomerang Club until Stephane moved back to France in 2003. But he is usually back in Montreal over the summer.
He currently holds the Canadian records for Fast Catch (19.85s), Endurance (66 catches) and Australian Round (81 points).
