That run scored him a perfect 100 in the X Games back in the day, and now, he did it just to qualify. I knew he would clutch up, but Jesus, the bar is ridiculously high now
@TheRealExquisite Existential Exception I wasnt until just now… speak for yourself
Even more mind blowing he’s 35 and still doing this,He’s proof age is just a number
@ZAC BASS nobody has ever heard of those guys you mentioned, sorry. The young snowboarders today have no clue who those people are.
@Kazem Edmond Tony who? (no worries, typos trip me up too)
@gumbysmirks Nah man, you’re just angry about it. I wish I had foam pads to train on.
Sad seeing so many American legends retiring hats off to the legend!
@Parker Evans Good point. See my last sentence re: not being an expert. lol
It’s part of the game. We all remember watching this as kids. The new kid on the block just shredding the comp, the underdog with a style everyone gravitates to, the guys who just want to land that one trick, and the veterans trying to conclude with a polished performance. New fans don’t cheer for the veterans.
@damatar what do you call red gerard? He’s been wrecking every event he’s been at
What’s sad (as an American) is that there don’t seem to be proteges waiting in the wings to replace them at the highest levels. In the past, it seemed there was often a younger version who also won a medal or came close who broke out in the following years and was the gold medal contender in the next Olympics. Though I’m no expert, so maybe I’m wrong.
Can’t wait till the last 3 runs in the final, it all or nothing, go get your Gold Shaun🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@Orlando Rodriguez Shaun performs great under pressure though. He only needs that one fire run. Hoping for the best for him whatever that may be 🙂
@Orlando Rodriguez I think he can at the very least contend for a medal
@Orlando Rodriguez I wouldn’t say he has no shot, but the Japanese definitely look like they might sweep it.
Yes… Get it ❤️
🌨🏂🏔🌊🏄🏼♂️🌊/Casey Willax FTD 🤟🏻🙏🏻
Commentators really know what there seeing. He pulled a trick in the half tube!
“He’s extremely talented on the snowboard”
@J K The app? I was just watching on regular tv. I don’t know, the commentators sounded different to me and analyzed a lot more on ticks, stats,scoring and history of the competitors
@Priceless201 I was watching live on peacock and it was these same guys 🙁
I thought it was my grandfather calling this…😂
@Dreamer898 ! I’m glad I’m not the only one who was annoyed by them. They gave no technical analysis at all. I could have done better lol
I remember watching Shaun White compete on X games back when I had only antennae it was the only thing to watch. Then they introduced snowboarding to the winter Olympics and got to see him dominate year after year. It’s awesome getting to see the GOAT last ride
@Nobody what?
A pathetic “add on” to try and increase lessening interest, but this only makes it even less palatable. Just some punk teen nobody…
Agree! I’ve been around and watched his first gold,now he’s the “old guy!” Old guys rule!
That’s awesome and it is awesome to watch his last run after all these years.
I was praying he was going to compete at the X games, we just went to Colorado and got to watch the super pipe in person in Aspen.
once in a lifetime to witness someone like this in a sport he truly is in his own lane I hope he lays down a awesome run tomorrow and does something that he will be proud to end his last run go get em!
Shaun White will be the best commentator for the games going forward! These current guys don’t know what’s happening in front of them! 🤪
For sure!!!
Hopefully NBC considers offering him a spot as a commentator in the future if he’d consider it, like they did Johnny Weir.
I think these are the generic commentators for the international feed. NBC usually hires their own top-notch commentators
I was thinking that too, these commentators had nothing to offer
Dang that’s a really excellent point, I really hope he does commentating in the future!
I give the announcer a 10 for enthusiasm/passion but a 2 for knowledge of the sport
@chris Shadis the only thing I can think of is people didn’t really like a few years back that he was flying a helicopter almost daily to his private halfpipe for training, but 1) that was part of a red bull deal and 2) let the dude train how he wants, jeez
Why did they say he was a controversial figure ?? Never really saw Shaun that way at all, and I’ve been watching him since he was a kid skating at Tony hawk’s gigantic tours and signed my board. Even ran into him at a dinner party YEARS later with my hospital coworkers at a fundraiser and he was still super nice and did a lot for the organization
@Christina Flores One is the standard international feed that the Olympic broadcasting service puts out. The other are commentators that NBC hires
@eew12 same! I just watched the Peacock version with two really great, knowledgeable American commentators. Weird that they have two versions.
‘What a LEGEND!’ hahahaha
They really went all out getting these golf announcers
Hey now. Don’t sell the guy short. He’s a CYCLING announcer
I’m surprised that they weren’t sipping tea while “commentating”.
Lol
Oh, I was wondering why everyone was talking about the commentators, cuz I thought they were good, but I see these aren’t the same commentators that aired last night when I watched it on TV. Thank God lol
Didn’t announce a single trick 😂
LEGEND
