Yes I know Louis Vito. He actually started snowboarding here in Ohio at a little hill. I knew him and his parents really well when he was about 10 years old. He was amazing at that time, especially since we are a small hill and we are amazed someone as good as him came from here! But then he became sponsered by so many companies and he moved out west to learn so much more then MRM had to offer and has gotten sooooo much better!!! I havn't seen him very much in recent years. I know he boarded in the exhibition before the last Olympics and almost was in the Olympics. My sister rode up the chairlift with him last year out in Park City, UT and he just had a rail jam back at my hill 2 Sundays ago although I didn't get a chance to meet up with him and actually talk to him or his parents :-/
He is now sponcered by: O-Matic, Volcom, Red Bull, Boost Mobile, Spy Optics, Kicker Car Stereos, Grenade Gloves, Vestal Watches, Windell's, Neff headwear, Utility Boardshop
Not bad for an Ohio kid. Your question got me curious and I looked him up online. He just beat out Olympic winner Danny Kass in Australia! I hope he will be in the next Olympics since I dont' have cable to see him on the X-Games.
