More than overcoming physical restrictions, and turning them into assets for success Philippe Ribière ‘s true achievements are his ability to communicate and convey energy., happiness, and positive messages. He is now an ideal representative for the Petzl, North Face, Beal, La Sportiva et Julbo communications teams. The confidence and support they have granted him are the foundations for his future achievements: such as the European Tour (www.evolution-tour.com) beginning in 2009 and including more than 20 countries driving a van and visiting climbers and contests all by himself.
