Shaun White: The Last Run is an official documentary and biopic of the former pro snowboarder. White is one of the rarest gems in the sport of snowboarding. The 36-year-old has won three Olympic gold medals and has played the sport for over two decades. When the former pro athlete wasn’t even a year old, he had to undergo two open-heart surgeries to survive.
