I admit hes the richest ginger I know of, the  best PIPE boarder in the world and very dedicated.

He also seems like a trick miser and doesn't film or seem to do stuff other than ride pipe. But I guess I would do the same if I could make ridiculous amounts of money. Fuck him for remotely looking like me though.

i guess there are perks for being arguably the best pipe boarder ever?

I really do not think that shit gave him that much of an edge over everyone else. It was more or less a publicity stunt for redbull.

He also earned that private pipe by being the best pipe boarder. And he works super super hard. He's not the most likable guy around but defiantly was a level ahead of everyone in tech and amplitude. So deserved the gold. A shame Davis and Pearce were not competing... Ah well.

He stomped his dub corks in the pipe like everyone thought he would, at the end of the day it's still mostly gapers that look up to him and nobody worth a damn cares cause he can't do shit outside of the pipe.

His performance was bad ass, and his coach got to say "shit" on national TV. Definitely earned the gold.

he is a badass on his board (skate/snow)   I am just sick of him winning everything.  No doubt he is the best.  It makes the shit boring when we all knew he was going to win before the olympics even started.  I respect his riding, i just wanna see someone else have their time.  Like the little dancer or lego or anyone.    His time will end sooner or later and i cant wait till it does.

Cant say im a big fan of the guy, but his boarding tonight was fucking unreal. He was going absolutely HUGE and threw down arguably the toughest trick being done in half pipe comp with very little clearance. I was pretty stoked watching him and lago get onto that podium. Although vito got fucked and the fin was absolutely handed 2nd place~

Uhh, so why do you think he wins everything? Probably because he's the best.

Vibes to KP. He needs it more than Shaun needs another medal.

Last night I had a dream he was good at BMX too. Needless to say I woke up covered in my own urine and screaming for help.

Really though, he knows how to ride and he slays, no need to hate on him for having some amazing talent.

Can you read?  I said "no doubt he is the best"  i am just tired of seeing him win everything.   I dont even see why you quoted that.
