“I'm not too big on moisturisers and fancy skin products. I keep my grooming regi…” — Shaun White

When I came back to skating, everyone was like 'Oh you're the snowboard guy.'

When I'm on planes, I'd talk to people and I'd tell them I compete in the X Games. Some would know what it was, but maybe half didn't. But everyone knows about the Olympics. They're really like the X Games for the world!

I've got to stand up for the sport.

My mom was a waitress, and my dad was a plumber who worked for the City of San Clemente fixing mains breaks, so not too glamorous.
