Shaun White made X-Games history again as the only rider to claim gold medals in both slopestyle and superpipe with his victory tonight in Aspen. Shaun beat out Mason Aguirre, Scotty Lago and Windell's own Lil' Louie Vito to take home the Gold and tie Shaun Palmer for the most X-Games medals at 6. The difference is—White's got many more X-Games to go. Just wait until he nabs both summer and winter, haha. Anyway, since apparently back-to-back 1080s don’t cut it anymore—Shaun went ahead and threw in an extra 1080 on the last hit. Hmmm, looks like the Olympics is going to be pretty good. Better get your brooms out 'cause it could be another Team USA sweep.
