Shaun White Knabs Gold… World Not Shocked

January 31st, 2008 Wade

White pulled off a 1260 this year, which is pretty much not done, ever. He did it on his final run to seal the gold medal for himself at this year’s Winter X Games in Aspen, CO. This is his seventh medal.

I am absolutely shocked at this turn of events. I never thought he’d be able to pull it off. Really.

I actually saw Shaun last Summer in L.A. when the Summer X-Games were going on. He was staying at the same hotel I was. Seemed like a pretty cool guy.
