Shaun White Arrested

The Olympic snowboarder faces charges of public intoxication and vandalism after some drama that went down at the Loews Vanderbilt Hotel at 2 a.m. on Sunday.

A drunk person, apparently White, started the ruckus by pulling a fire alarm, causing the hotel to evacuate all guests. An employee then witnessed White destroying a hotel telephone, according to police. When the "Flying Tomato" tried to leave the scene, shit — as they might say — got real:


White reportedly attempted to flee the hotel in a cab but a citizen prevented the cab from leaving, telling the driver he was calling police. When White overheard their conversation, he allegedly kicked the citizen and fled on foot. The citizen reported that he chased White until White turned and ran into him apparently causing White to fall backwards and strike his head against a fence.

White is now free on his own recognizance. None of his several sponsors have commented on the arrest.

   Riding crew at the top of Peak 8, Breckenridge before a slightly terrifying and very rocky ride down Whale's Tail. 12,998ft makes for an exhausting ride down.  Well worth the work though.

Nice stalefish, Peter.

I'm getting all different kinds of stoked for my trip next week to CO.  I can't stop watching clips from '90s snowboard videos.  This one is a definite old school favorite.  Peter Line killing it 1996 style from the video "Stomping Grounds".  It's safe to say there's been some serious progression in the last 15+ years, but that doesn't make this any less gnarly.

You always know a snowboard video is SUPER rad when it actually induces anxiety while you're watching  Not a bad way to end an evening. If you have not seen Art of Flight I highly suggest you do as soon as possible.
