Notable:
Rippey missed WX 2000 because he
injured his right knee (back leg) while
riding a halfpipe in 1999. However he
is back and ready to compete again.
His fiancee, Jennifer White, will be on
the side lines cheering him on.

Quote:
"Not only was it good for me to take a
year off from competing for my knee to
heal but it was good for my fire and
passion for snowboarding."
