Novotny is looking to make the Final for the first time at WX after 3 appearances. He had his best finish in 2009: 11th. He finished 16th at the 2010 Winter Olympics for the Czech Republic. It was his 2nd Olympics (in 2006 he finished 13th in snowboard cross) The Winter Olympics are a far cry from his first race 11 years ago, a small event he cross-country skied 10 miles to with his snowboard strapped to his back. Novotny runs a charitable organization to raise and distribute funds for sporting equipment and activity programs for children's homes.
