ZHANGJIAKOU, China (Reuters) – American three-time gold medallist Shaun White checked out the halfpipe course at the Beijing Games in what is likely to be his final Olympics.
In an Instagram post published early Thursday, White and his coach shredded the Olympic course, admiring the Great Wall artwork carved into the side of one of the snow banks in Zhangjiakou.
“All right! Right No.1.” he said in the post.
The men’s snowboarding halfpipe competition begins on Feb. 9.
