CI - 15.7 - Scott Lago

The World Quarterpipe event is less a test of skill and snowboarding finesse than one of courage and endurance. There are no stock contest runs when a roughneck crowd of New Hampshire dirts line a runway strewn with empties, bonfires and other throwable refuse. This environment is enveloped in the crowds echoing chants of pussies. This is enough to turn the most hardened snowboarding pro to Jello. Such is the arena that Scottie Lago entered as a rookie and exited the 2002 World Junior Quarterpipe Championships. Viva La Lago!
