Five minutes with Louie Vito and Jed Anderson
Posted by: Snowboard Revolution in Pro RidersJed has been on the scene for a long time so it is not surprising that he rocked second place at the Block at Tahoe rail jam. I think the first time I saw him was at the 2002 Vans Triple Crown at Snow Summit. He was only 10 or 11 years old. Considering he competed against Terje and Shaun White in pipe back then (Shaun White did not make the 2002 Olympics although he should have, the Triple Crown was at the same time) would make Jed a seasoned Vet by the time he was 12. Well, almost 5 years later Jed is filling into has man body which will give him the power to back up the skills he has been developing for years. In 2005 Jed got 3rd at US Open rail jam, so sick. Let’s see what the Calgary Canada native has to say after getting 2nd place in Marc Frank’s Block at Tahoe rail jam. The field was not full of slackers either; try Jimi Tomer, Travis Kennedy, Mike Casanova, Chad Otterstrom, Chris Bradshaw, Mike Burton and more.

Louie grew up in Ohio and recently finished school at the Stratton Mountain Academy in Vermont. Lately, Louie Vito is on a tear, with a few podiums under his belt in the pipe contests it is rad to see him entering the rail jam too. A well rounded rider he now rides for Omatic. Judging by his pipe skill set he could be a contender for the 2010 Olympics. I said Mason Aguirre would be in the Olympics way back in 2002 so I know of which I speak. Let us see what he is into lately, as of December 9, 2006
