Turns Out He Actually Is Human

Its the most wonderful time of the year!!! Nope not Christmas. IT WINTER X GAMES! And as you know I love the x games. Seriously its not often that snowboarding is put on such a big stage. Its fun to see how everyone is pushing the sport. Like Torstein Horgmo's insane triple cork. Its just ridiculous, and something I definitely suggest you you tube. But one guy isn't having the weekend they expected. As always Shaun White was supposed to come in and take not only the super pipe victory but slopestyle as well. So he will most likely win pipe tonight but his slopestyle was a joke. He didn't even qualify for the finals. He was knocked out by an 18 year old kid from Salt Lake.(Represent! btw) So how does a guy capable of this. Grant it this picture was taken in a pipe but when I googled Shaun White Snowboarding all I got were images from his stupid video game. But anyway if you can do that you can qualify for slope. So how did he get knocked out?

Well, I will tell you. Shaun had every single athlete in the sport pushing to dethrone him. They were working their tails off to catch him. Hitting the hill every day then hitting the gym then hitting the hill again. And what was Shaun White doing while everyone else was killing themselves to push not only them but the sport as a whole. This...

While they were busy riding their boards, he was riding a horse. The Xgames were his first competition since the Olympics. Which last year he had taken the year off of slopestyle anyway. So he was planning on being able to compete for the first time in practically 2 years and take home a victory against everyone that has been dedicating their life practically to the event. Right after he got knocked out a commercial came on of him driving around a car for BF Goodwrench. What does that have to do with snowboarding? K, alot of sponsor's don't have stuff to do with the sport but still like at least they try to be relevant. BF Goodwrench has nothing to do with anything snow related. So just me maybe Shaun should stop selling out and actually try riding a little bit more. He has pushed the sport more than anyone else could. There is a line between making the sport more main stream and just being plain annoying.
