Louie Vito soars out of the halfpipe Saturday on his way to a win in Colorado.
Reigning overall champions Louie Vito (Bellefontaine native now living in Sandy, Utah) and Kelly Clark (West Dover, Vermont) boosted the best runs of the day to win their third Grand Prix halfpipe competitions in a row as the U.S. Snowboarding Grand Prix, presented by Sprint, opened for the season this past weekend at Copper Mountain, CO.
"The last two years I haven't made finals at the first Grand Prix and that's kinda been a bummer. But, It's nice going into the rest of the season with the win and knowing that you have that accomplishment," Vito said. "Hopefully the rest of the season follows in the right direction like this."

Bellefontaine native Louie Vito opened the '08-'09 season with a win in Colorado over the weekend.
Louie Vito wasn't getting the height he wanted in the halfpipe, so he sought out fellow American snowboarder Kelly Clark for help.
Known for her big air, Clark quickly straightened out his amplitude issues.
"She said, 'Tell yourself you have to do it and do it,'" Vito recounted.
Sound advice that served both of them well. Clark and Vito each went big in snowy conditions to win the halfpipe events at the U.S. Snowboarding Grand Prix on Saturday.
