Louie Vito has done it all: Champion snowboarder, reality TV star on ‘Dancing with the Stars’, playing himself in the sequel to ‘Point Break’, and there is so much more to him. On part 2 with Louie, we dive into sponsors, contests, Danny Kass and the Grenade Crew, the fact that no brand ever put big marketing dollars behind him, and so much more. Louie is not the guy I thought he was going to be, he’s the hardest man working on the game. And a badass in his own right, Toby Miller, asks the Inappropriate Questions.
