I said a very similar thing to him on the chair at mammoth. And then we shat on simon (who was not on the chair) for taking skiing too seriously. He was pretty cool about everything. I think it's strange how everyone in this thread is so quick to bandwagon on the fuck Shawn white train. Then again he is often a douche, but not always

It might be a good idea for him to retire before getting any major injuries which (I think) would subsequently slow him down or force him to retire like Dumont who's around the same age.
(I've posted this pic before) but he (or his twin) told me he had no plans of retiring.
Theoretically, he could kick on well into his 30s - more likely he'll get sick of snowboarding than retire.
It's not age that caps people's careers - it's injuries (and an inability to recover or overcome them) that forces people into retirement so they can finish on a high. Andre Agassi retired at 36. Also, having a break is a good idea.
