Shaun White is a snowboarding icon. He’s done a lot over the course of his career, which, as of his recent announcement, is coming to an end. At 35 years old, White has a ridiculous amount of hardware on his mantel. Eight X Games Snowboard SuperPipe gold medals, five Slopestyle Golds, 11 ESPYs, and three Olympic Halfpipe golds, just to name a few.
After all those years racking up all those medals, White has a few things that he can’t live without. GQ sat him down and asked him to tell the viewer about what those are. From his snowboard and guitar to his Omega Speedmaster Racing watch and first Olympic “gold medalist” ring, these are Shaun White’s ten essentials. It’s relatively safe to say that some of them aren’t the layperson’s essentials.
