Things I Like: Olympic Snowboarding, Shaun White’s Double McTwist and Team Japan’s outfits

(Shaun White)

While the kick off for the Vancouver Winter Games was marred by that remake thingy, I’ve been enjoying the Blades of Glory theatrics of the ice skating, and the snowboarding…I hear the other Team USA boarders don’t quite connect with Shaun White but wow…that weird looking guy is a beast! Click here to watch Shaun White’s insanely incredible winning run…with his successfully completed “Double McTwist” trick.

That said…I was not a fan of those Team USA faux-blue-jean boarding pants. Blech. And the Abercrombie plaid. Boo. While Team Japan lacked the air and the clean landings to win anything…their outfits killed : )

  1. Shaun should get a hair cut, but he can snowboard like nobody else, so I guess this makes it okay.
