Shaun White Olympics 2010 Video and Gold Medal Run Impress
Shaun White Olympics 2010 video and gold medal run impress many. Shaun White nailed the Double McTwist 1260 at the Vancouver Winter Games, and since his winning moment he’s been the talk of the games. No one is surprised that White won the Gold Medal in the men’s half pipe event. He was favored to win before he even set foot in Vancouver, especially after last month’s X Games performance. Many have tried to pinpoint exactly what makes Shaun White so popular. Yeah, he’s an amazing athlete with unparalleled talent. But, there’s something more there that keeps everyone coming back. For instance, prior to his gold medal run, he spent the day kayaking with friends. He rested his legs, enjoyed life, and didn’t stress himself out. Then, there’s his fire red curly hair. This is likely why he’s dubbed “The Flying Tomato.” His down-to-earth looks puts people at ease. There’s nothing fake or pompous about Shaun White. He could be the guy next door. If you missed Wednesday’s Olympic performance, you can view a video of Shaun White nailing his signature Double McTwist 1260 here. In addition to landing the difficult signature move, people have been talking about a “vulgar” conversation that the snowboarder had immediately prior to leaving on his second run. How “vulgar”? Well, he let a couple of bad words slip – but didn’t say anything that would rate him XXX.
