The maestro retired in 2022 after the Beijing Olympics. Moreover, even after retiring from his sport, Shaun White is not away from the snow.

After his long journey of 20 years, White, 35, decided to take off from snowboarding. Reportedly, he injured his back and knee quite often and the cold worked as a catalyst for it. So, to fans’ astonishment, he declared the Beijing Olympics 2022 as his last appearance. After the announcement he said, “… I think this is will be my last — well, it will be my last competition. Which is pretty special too.” The unbearing cold and health issues were something understandable for his followers.
