With all those damn gum commercials, I forget that Shaun White is actually still a really good snowboarder. Never in the history of The X Games has a snowboarder received a 100- a perfect score!
Here’s the clip of the amazing run. Some say that the judging is biased due to White’s fame, but you can’t deny that it’s worthy of a gold medal.
White pulled out of Slopestyle due to an ankle injury. It proved to be a good decision in the long run because his performance during the X Games was incredible. His first run was a 94, and he did this run while still in 1st place.
STRIDE is going to sell the hell out of that flavor today.
