Ross Powers has quietly taken over the halfpipe circuit. He�s definitely become the man to beat, and in the year 2000 he hasn�t lost very often. Snowboard Life tracked him down during his hectic schedule to answer a few questions from his fans across the globe. So go ahead, ask him something you�ve always wanted to know.

In 2000 alone, Ross Powers has racked up more halfpipe wins than most riders can put on a resume in their entire career. It reads like this: firsts in all three Triple Crown events, the Gravity Games, and the Goodwill Games. Second place in the U.S. Open, X-Games, and the Tahoe Grand Prix. He�s also the overall 2000 ISF World Halfpipe Champion. Not bad for a quiet, 21 year-old kid from Vermont. Ross rides for Burton, RLX Polo Sport, and Power Bar.
