    I stopped performing X-Game stunts when I was 10.

    Really, who knows if these guys are that good or they just kept doing something most of us grew out of?

    I know they're talented, but they're like... golf pro talented. Sure, it could probably be explained that they're truly gifted, but from where I sit- looks like I could do it with a few months practice.

    Fair point, I don't agree with it 100%. I was always a little chubby when growing up and was never blessed with the gifts of balance and rhythm so I never got into it. It seems like what they do requires an abnormal amount of core strength. (abs, glutes, etc) Am I right?

    We'd make ramps and stuff for our bikes in the neighborhood but nothing like these guys do...

    That would be impressive if you can. I have spent a life time skiing and was competitive in younger days but don't think I ever had the capability to do what they do now.
    Of course times and focus of winter sports have changed to some degree.

    Crazy. He was born with the same heart defect my son has. He really must not value his life too much if he's anywhere near coke.

    Someone start a Jack White appreciation thread. The White Stripes broke up. I'm sad.

    I'm not jealous of Shaun White. I'm way better looking than him... as are most people. Nothing to be jealous of.

    Can't be jealous of someone that ugly. That's the point.

    I could break Shaun White in half and I'm not a big guy. Looks like Pam Anderson could do the same.
