Right before we start, can we make a couple of suggestions?

1) If you absolutely despise Shaun White, or are sick of the sight of him, then DO NOT WATCH THIS VIDEO. As the headline suggests, it features Shaun White.

2) If you absolutely love Shaun White, and are offended by the amount of stick he gets in the snowboard world, then ALSO DO NOT WATCH THIS VIDEO Because [Spoiler alert] it doesn’t exactly blow smoke up his ass.

3) If, on the other hand, you are like us and appreciate Shaun’s talents, while also accepting that some of his attitudes are questionable and deserve a bit of piss-take, then please DO WATCH THIS VIDEO. It’s Shaun at the cover shoot for Vail Resorts magazine and you’ll probably find it amusing. We certainly did when we saw it on YoBeat this morning.

Now we’ve got that out of the way, you can get on with leaving your vitriolic love Shaun/hate Shaun/fuck you Whitelines comments below in the approved manner…
