Five-time Olympian and former pro snowboarder Shaun White is doing what most people reading this hope to do someday—retire and spend the time surfing.
That's what he's doing in his latest social media post, and he looks super stoked about it.
Of course, White, aka The Flying Tomato, isn't fighting for waves in crowded lineups like most people. He's getting barreled at Kelly Slater's super exclusive, and super pricey Surf Ranch in California.
White wrote in his post above:
"Barely made it out of this tube 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻 braaaaa!!!"
The post is a collection of shots in the water showing the regular footer going frontside on a righthander. He got a pretty solid barrel and even made it out.
In the other photos, one thing's for sure—White looks super stoked.
Who wouldn't be?
Considering he has three Olympic gold medals in halfpipe snowboarding, we're not surprised he kind of rips at surfing too.
The Surf Ranch has been on our radar lately.
We reported earlier today that Slater and his girlfriend, Kalani Miller, just hosted a family day at the wave pool.
Earlier this week, WSL commentator and former pro surfer, Strider Wasilewski, assisted his son in surfing it too. Slater was there to award the grom a Wave of the Day trophy.
Viewers loved the post. Check out some of their comments below:
"Such a Badass always"
"Like fine wine getting better with age"
"Of course he surfs too"
"Is there any board sport that you can’t rip on??? 🙌🔥🙌 Time for you to kiteboard too!!!"
