RWS sponsors top French shooter Lucas Kryzs

RWS is delighted to welcome French top athlete Lucas Kryzs as a new cooperation partner for the upcoming Olympic cycle.

The 24-year-old small-bore and air rifle specialist is one of Europe's most promising athletes and has earned himself a place among the international elite in recent years.


Sporting highlights of an up-and-coming Olympian

Lucas Kryzs, born in 2001, competed for France at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, where he performed strongly in both disciplines. He had already demonstrated his nerves of steel in many other international competitions and consistently outperforms his competitors. His remarkable achievements speak for themselves:

  • Finalist at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris
  • World Championships: one gold, one silver, and one bronze medal
  • European Championships: 2 silver medals
  • Countless gold, silver, and bronze medals at international ISSF competitions and the French Championships
  • Consistent top rankings in the ISSF World Ranking

Achievements in detail

With his precise shooting style, mental strength, and clear focus on the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, he is considered one of the most promising candidates for a medal in the 50 m three-position competition and with the air rifle.

Test shooting at RWS: Perfect choice for the European Championships on home soil

Lucas recently visited the RWS test shooting range in Fürth. There, he took the opportunity to work with the experts at RWS to select the ideal lot from the R50 series for the upcoming European Championships in Châteauroux. The European Championships are a special highlight for Lucas – and another milestone for RWS in its collaboration with top international athletes.

Looking ahead: Together toward the 2028 Olympics

The new cooperation between RWS and Lucas Kryzs marks the beginning of a promising partnership that is set to extend beyond the European Championships to the 2028 Olympic Games. The combination of technical excellence, high-quality ammunition, and athletic performance forms the foundation for joint success on the international stage.

We wish Lucas every success in his upcoming competitions – especially at the European Championships on home soil in Châteauroux – and look forward to working with him during the Olympic cycle until 2028!
