White scored a 46.8 on his first run in the halfpipe finals, which was enough to win the gold medal alone. But taking a second run, which he ended with the Double McTwist 1260, he earned a 48.4. That put him 3.4 higher than the silver medalist from Finland, Peetu Piiroinen.
Congratulations to Shaun White for bringing home the gold at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver!
