Andy Hetzel, Legendary Snowboarder
Description
Andy Hetzel is the Rick Kane of snowboarding. Hailing from Arizona, Andy's first love was skateboarding, then punk rock. This eventually led to Andy finding snowboarding and moving his life to Breckenridge. He competed early and often and achieved pro status, but Hetzel won't be remembered for contests, well maybe as the reigning World Mogul Champion. But, outside of that bump title, Andy and the skate-influenced crew he rode with, you know, the Palmer and Ranquet types, helped create the derelict culture of the sport when it wasn't considered a sport, it was a lifestyle. It's a fun history lesson, and Utah legend Benny Pelligrino asks the Inappropriate Questions.
