After claiming his world title, Pierre Louis Costes resigns with Rip Curl for 2 years.
The partnership between Rip Curl and Pierre Louis Costes it’s a long and beautiful story. Supported since 2002 by the Australian brand, PL has been able to focus on his passion and training with only one goal: to become World Champion. Rip Curl continues its support by resigning Pierre Louis for two years.
The prize list of the young French would make grow pale more than one. 6 times French Champion under 18, 2 times French Open Champion, European Junior Champion at only 14, he was only missing to win the world title.
2011 has seen the consecration of the French body boarder Pierre Louis Costes (Hossegor, 22 years old). IBA World Champion, the first ISA World Champion (amateur), winner of multiple stages of the World Tour, Pierre Louis Costes has engraved his name in the history of international body board.
“I didn’t expect this consecration to come this quick” says PL. In 2010, it didn’t need much more to get on the top of the podium. It will finally be his compatriot Amaury Lavernhe… 2011 will finally be its year: Double World title (ISA and IBA), PL does not count on leaving it there.
Today, he keeps a cool head and he’s bent on achieving its 2012 goals: Keep his World Champion title and win the event Pipeline (Hawaii), the ultimate reward in the career of a professional body boarder.
Congratulations Pierre Louis and good luck for your 2012 season.
