Two-time winner of the X-Games Super Pipe in 2004 & 2005 and again on the podium in 2008 and 2007 with a great silver, Simon Dumont has become one of the new uncontested stars of the discipline! Capable of pushing his limits even further with runs of more and more incredible amplitude, this young American has huge talent and proved it again in 2008 setting a new World Record. Equipped with pure style and mental force, Simon has also expressed himself in backcountry for the past years with great sessions. With his talent and focus, Simon pushes the limits of Freestyle and should impress us again in 2009!
