Is Shaun White Still Snowboarding?
You even need to ask that question?
Shaun White is still snowboarding and he is ripping!
So he had a rough return to the X-Games and took a few L’s in 2016. Whatever. We’re predicting Shaun back on the podium at the 2018 Olympics. He’s 30-years old, training hard, and it looks like he’s hungry again, which is dangerous. Just look at that first his in the pipe in the video below.
Shaun opened up to ESPN in this interview about losing and refocusing. A process that included almost everything in his life. He’s getting coached by JJ Thomas, blew up his Insta and his band, and is working harder than ever.
White turned 30 last fall, and anyone who tuned out after his stunning loss at the Olympics in Russia missed the start of a reboot that may feel more like a comeback story. Back at the Winter X Games this year, the two-time Olympic champion has refocused his business, his training and his fitness for a run at next year’s games.
“I decided at 29 that if I was going to go for it, I should step it up, invest in myself,” White said. “I got inspired.”
……..
“The moral of the story is about gaining control over everything I’m doing and having purpose and having vision,” White said. “From competing in events, to owning my own series to owning my own mountain. I’m 30. Thirty. It’s hitting pretty heavy.”
