amazaing Antti Aleksanteri Autti (born March 15, 1985 in Rovaniemi, Finland) He is the only snowboarder ever to beat Shaun White in the X Games. Is a Finnish snowboarding star who shot to fame when he defeated big-name talents Danny Kass, Andy Finch, and Shaun White in the Men's SuperPipe at the 2005 Winter X Games to claim the gold. He is the first non-American to win the event. Autti kicked off his final run with back-to-back 1080s, one of the hardest snowboarding tricks, and is only the third snowboarder to land the sequence in competition, behind Kass and Ross Powers. His clutch and technical performance sparked the "1080 Revolution" and set a new standard in men's halfpipe competition, where men must throw at least one 1080, if not two back-to-back, in order to do well in contests.
