TPM Episode 284: Louie Vito, Pro Snowboarder Pt. 1

Louie Vito is a badass snowboarder. He's an Olympian, a US Grand Prix Champion, a Dew Tour Champion, an X Games medalist, and he comes from a 300 vertical foot hill in Ohio. He also seems to know everyone form celebrities to pro athletes, he's competed in Dancing With The Stars, he's been in a Hollywood blockbuster movie and he's pretty humble about it all.
