Enjoy the snowfall. The three-time Olympic snowboard champion, Shaun White, offered a show of tricks and tricks in Central Park on the occasion of the great storm that left large amounts of snow in two thirds of the country, and turned much of New York white.
In a video uploaded to his Instagram profile, the athlete is seen jumping over two seated people, while dozens of spectators form a circle to appreciate White’s skill.
In addition to three gold medals in the halfpipe category at the Turin 2006, Vancouver 2010 and Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympic Games, White is the most awarded snowboarder at the ‘X Games’ with 18 medals.
In Manhattan’s Central Park, White made other similar jumps over several people who also wanted to experience the adrenaline by sitting in front of a small hill that the athlete used to gain elevation.
The renowned ‘snowboarder’ also performed pirouettes like somersaults forward that unleashed shouts of admiration from the public.
It should be noted that Sunday’s ice and snow storm that has affected two-thirds of the United States left at least 30 dead in the United States and caused power outages in more than a million homes.
It also caused the worst day of flight cancellations since the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 with more than 11,000 and also 17,000 delays, according to US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.
Many areas of the East Coast, including New York, received 12 and 15 inches (15 and 40 centimeters) of snow and sleet, and more snow and significant amounts of ice are expected to accumulate in the coming days.
