With the X-Games and Olympics right around the corner, Shaun White put a little video together to show off his "newest" trick. He has been consistently pulling off the Double Cork 10, and the Cab Double Cork 10 making 2 out of the 4 Hammers in the pipe. The two tricks that have been alluding him have been the final two; the Double Cork McTwist 12, and the Double Cork Rodeo. Up until a month ago nobody was able to pull off more than two in a competition, but when Danny Davis threw down both of those plus the Double Cork Rodeo at the Grand Prix in Mammoth, it looked like someone was going to give Shaun a run for his money. Then two weeks ago we all started receiving phone calls and texts from our friends at Park City, saying that Shaun had just landed the Double Cork McTwist 12. Soon there after Danny Davis had his unfortunate accident on an atv in Utah, breaking his back and needing surgery, and thus ending his season early. Now, going into the last Grand Prix this weekend, Shaun has decided to put out this video to up the ante a little bit. This guy is so amazingly dialed in it is going to be really hard to beat him anywhere. Dew Tour, X-Games, Grand Prix, or Olympics. And these are the tricks that he is showing us...I mean he's probably got something else even more ridiculous up his sleeve that he learned on his private practice pipe. I'm not usually the one to hype up Shaun White, but here's the video and you can be the judge on how amazingly ridiculous this guy is. The undisputed fact is that this guy is soooooo dialed in its almost video game easy...
Also here is a listing posted on Transworld Snowboarding of the final qualifiers for this weekends Grand Prix contests. Notice the last name on the list? It surprised me too, and even though he has been out due to an injured foot and ankle the last half of a year, he did win the US Open last year...Good luck Danbo and I hope that you got some gnarly tricks up your sleeves!
