The recently retired 3-time Olympic gold medalist shares his favorite action-sports photographs and family albums in this personally curated illustrated autobiography. White chronicles his evolution from his childhood in California into becoming the world’s best snowboarder and skateboarder, his travels to train and compete around the world, his appearances in fashion editorials and advertising, and his interest in music. Some of the world’s best action-sports photographers capture White performing his extreme snowboarding and skating tricks around the world--from his groundbreaking aerial maneuvers such as his Double McTwist 1260 on Olympic half pipes, to his radical skating tricks such ashis Frontside 540 Sky Hook at the X Games. White exceeded the imaginable limits of snowboarding and raised the bar for other snowboarding competitors to try to keep up with him. Narrated by White with detailed commentary throughout, this book is an autobiography in images and an intimate glimpse into the life of a celebrity athlete: training, competing, on the road and in the spotlight.

This informative volume provides a biographical overview of the life of two-time Olympic gold medalist snowboarder, Shaun White. Shaun has been riding boards since he was four years old, first a boogie board in the California surf, then a skateboard on his brother's ramp in the backyard, and finally a snowboard. He was so talented that, at seven years old, his parents entered him in his first amateur snowboarding contest, which he won. At thirteen he turned pro. Snowboarding was just the tip of the iceberg for this talented athlete. He soon also went pro in skateboarding and earned the nickname "The Flying Tomato," from his mentor, skateboarder Tony Hawk. Your readers will be inspired.
