Behind the Scenes of Our Shaun White Photo Shoot

Perhaps if you picked up this week’s issue of New York Magazine, you admired the photograph of snowboarder Shaun White standing atop a cab, brandishing his Olympic gold medal in the rain. If you’re a fan of the Flying Tomato, you may want to check out our behind-the-scenes video from the shoot. At the very least, it shows how good of a sport the guy is, standing in the pouring rain until his flowing tresses (which must have weighed 30 extra pounds by the end of it all) became thoroughly soaked.
