If you have yet to get the news, Shaun White no longer rides for Volcom anymore. He has started up his own clothing brand with Target. I was just browsing the interwebs today and check out Shaun’s website at ShaunWhite.com. Apparently the brand is launching very soon. It’s called Shaun White For Target. What do you think?

Roughly 5 days after the X Games committee announced that they killed off vert, it’s back from the dead! Vert skaters are trully rejoicing everywhere! Maybe they will add some flair to vert this year and get the skaters pulling antics like the image below. That could really bring vert back to the pop status that X Games is seeking…
Did the Man above have a helping hand in this resurrection or was it just the X Games General Manager, Chris Stiepock? Well you be the judge but it was interesting to hear what Mister Stiepock said about this whole ordeal…
“The X Games has always had a commitment to the athletes and our consistent communication with them has allowed us to collectively grow this event to where it is today,” said Chris Stiepock, General Manager, X Games. “In this particular case the communication took many turns but a consensus by the athletes has emerged that has lead us to reinstate Vert as an X Games discipline this year. We will continue to work with the athletes to make the X Games relevant and successful.”
Nice move X Games, way to listen to the people and the actual skaters! Welcome back to life and hopefully you will be around a few more years. Can’t wait to see what Shaun White, Bob, Bucky and PLG have up their sleeves this year. Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

As if this is a big surprise to anyone…. Shaun White has taken the Burton US Open Slopestyle. Same old story, 900’s and backside 1080’s.
