Shaun said, “Just motivated, you know, and I don’t really like to let off the gas. I mean, you may not see me, but I’m still doing all the things that I need to. I’m like yup you know training in the summer time. If I am not in the mountain I’m skateboarding, I’m surfing like I live a pretty active life.”

He further added, “And the thing that’s nice with the age is like you just realize so much about yourself. It’s like, hey I’m going for quality over quantity.”

Skateboarding legend Tony Hawk was Shaun’s mentor

Shaun White was just nine years old when skateboarding legend, Tony Hawk, took him under his guidance. Hawk started mentoring him and turned him into a professional athlete by the time he was 16. Even though a renowned snowboarder, Shaun’s skateboarding are equally impressive.

To date, Shaun shares a good relationship with Tony. Recently, Hawk tweeted a video with Shaun saying, “There are very few people I trust to go high enough over my ramp channel for me to zoom past underneath, and @shaunwhite is one of them. Here he is dusting off the cobwebs on a big heelfip as I sneak by this afternoon.”

Currently, Shaun is training to secure the berth for his fifth Winter Olympics appearance in Beijing next year. Do you think White will create history in China as he aims to win his fourth medal?
