Host John Henson says, "You can't spell 'winner' without 'Winter Wipeout.' At least I think you can't..I don't test well." In this episode contestants will face the Snowman Surprise, including "Booty Pop" who butts in on the Yule Log Jam, a Dolphin Impressionist who chatters on about the Big Balls, all while a "Studly Student" and "Pretty Piggy" run for their lives on the Polar Bear Express. Everyone, including a wishy-washy contestant dubbed "The Quitter," has high hopes of winning $50,000 in the Wipeout Zone.

Frost is melting off the Big Balls, which means it's time to spring forward for a new season of "Wipeout," and the world's most extraordinary obstacle course is in full bloom with an entirely brand new course. Energetic players will deliver astonishing spills, sensational tumbles and magnificent falls as they face all-new obstacles such as The Bed Bugs, gain major speed on the Springavator before they jump onto the Big Balls, try their luck on the Trampoline Spring Fling, all before being served up breakfast in the Wipeout Kitchen. Only three mighty contestants will move on to the Spring Wipeout Zone, battling head to head for a chance to win $50,000.
