White Reign

After a disappointing Slopestyle performance due to a broken board literally seconds before starting his run, the slope ninja came back with a vengeance in the half pipe this weekend. The wind and weather were vicious, causing riders to slip and slide all over the place. Shaun, however, was undeterred.

After throwing down a winning second run of 93, complete with the requisite twin 1080's, Mr. White went for broke on his gimme third run and stuck the first ever X Games competition 1260, and scored an astounding 96.66

Missed the run? So did I (damn you Tivo.) But thank the maker for Youtube:
