__Week 2 Project__

This is my power point on Figure Skating.



WHO is Seth Westcott?** Seth Westcott is an Americn Olympic Snowboarder who competed in the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. Seth Westcott beat Mike Robertson from Canada to win the gold medal. At the bottom of the snow board course, he gave a United States flag to Lindsey Sine of the United States Ski and Snowboard Assoication and told her "I'm going to need this at the finish line." The event was raced at Cypress Mountain in Vancouver, British Colombia. Seth Wescott previously won a gold medal at the 2006 Winter Olympic games in Turin, Italy. Some people wondered if he could defend his gold because he had a difficult year on the World Cup circut and because snowboard cross is so unpredictable. I think Seth Wescott triumphed because he was very determined and is passionate about the sport.
 * WHO did he beat to win the gold medal in the Men’s Snowboard Cross Final?**
 * WHAT did he do before the event that showed his confidence that he would win?**
 * WHERE was this event raced?**
 * WHEN did he previously win a gold medal?**
 * WHY did some wonder if he could successfully defend his gold this year?**
 * WHY do you think he triumphed?**
