Did you write all the commercials for your new Target line?
SW: Actually it was just me and my brother Jesse and we had so much fun coming up with those commercials. It was so hard not to laugh and ruin the shot! But it was really, really fun!

David from Post #4 discussion board
So, what's the best advice for an aspiring pro rider?

From the Wall: Maxine
What kind of role model do you hope to be?
SW: I just want to be someone that people look at and think, "Cool, he did it totally different and had a lot of fun!" Having fun and enjoying the ride. Snowboarding and skateboarding have taught me so much about the world, people and travel. It is crazy!

Post # 16 Oleg
What's your favorite kind of music?
SW: I love all kinds of music but rock is always a good go to!

From the Wall: Steve
Do you ever go back and ride Snow Summit and Bear just for fun?

SW: Yeah, I try to get up there about once a year, but it gets tough with the travel schedule! I used to be up there everyday though! Hilarious times just me and the fam cruising up there in our van and riding all day!

From the Wall: Sasha

What's the weirdest thing you have ever eaten?
SW: There are some crazy things that I have eaten in Japan, to be honest, I don't even know what they where! They were gross and that is about it!

From the Wall: Kelly
If you could be any kind of sandwich what would it be and why?
SW: I would be the world's only snowboarding sandwich so that I could keep on riding!

Any tips for the upcoming rider that is looking to get sponsored?

hi shaun white can i be your girlfriend

and about ur clothing line, i rlly want some of ur shirts so do u know if it launched in canada too? and also, did u mean to be the worlds best snowboarder(in my opinion) or was it coincidental?

hey! you are my idol! Your double mctwist 1260 was amazing! i would love to learn more about you... this is about the only website i get on for info... i hate how you can't trust website's info... except for this one... this one is awesome ;)...

Hay you rock i would love to talk to you good job at the Olympics

what do u think is easyer snowboarding or skateboarding?

I heard that you live in Carlsbad and I know that it never ever snows there. So how were you able to practice snowboarding?

oh yah, questions. hav u ever thought of a snowboarding tour throughout canada? you should. and also, are you still a very good skiier or did u kinda vear off? lol

ur an awesome snowboarder, congrats on ur gold!!! ur rlly talented =). and u have great hair!! omg i luv it!! ur awesome and you will always be awesome! luv ya! =D

Out of all the places that you have been where is your favorite?

whats your favorite trick on a snowboard how do come up with new tricks. when you were 11 where did you learn how to do flips.

what is your fan mail i want to send fan email because your so COOL!

what is your fan mail address?

Dang. I tried to snowboard one time and i fell on my butt. Skateboarding i also failed at. I'll stick to riding horses. But anywho, who is your favorite band? Cause i also listen to Rock, alternative, and also metal :).

I Know I sound kind of selfish saying this but I'm 11 and I always wanted to know how to snow board but we don't have the money to go and buy a snowboard and I was just wondering if you could send me an old board or somthing.

Shaun, I don't mean to intimidate you and I am sorry if I do but, what do you look for in a girl?

I really really really would love to meet you someday. I have been watching you since i was 7 years old. I wish I was as good of a snowboarder rider as you. What is your favorite place to ride? I have only rode at Paoli peaks and I can't figure out how to turn just yet. But it is the best sport ever and I get such a adrenaline rush when I ride.

is there something that you really want in life? is there a goal that you have?

hey shawn i like to the olympics every year and the part i always want to see is the mens half pipe. i realy like your snowboarding tricks. i was woundering if you were ever going to land the 1080. that would be really sweet.

Not a question. Great job at the X games and good luck in Vancouver. That 60 Minutes interview seemed on the cold side as far as the questions and the timing (olympics). Shake it off, kick some ass, and realize who your true friends are. Bring home the gold for yourself, we're already proud of ya.

Which do you like better, snowboarding or skateboarding?

I was watching u on cribs and wondering if u live in carlsbad!!!!!

this is not another fan letter saying your amazing, will you marry me, or anyhting like that! i just recently wanted to take up snowboarding after going to holiday valley with my cousin Kyle. i was wondering what your input was on what kind of board or brand i should get for a first board???? well I might be seeing you at the 2010 winter olympics !!!! PEACE LOVE BURTON!! =) (=

Shaun I'm trying to figure out how to beat your game on psp and I'm stuck on japan do you know any cheats?

Shaun how do you feel about doing the green train with Bob Wolf from we are the world?

My name is Daniel and I am 11 years old and love skiing and snowboarding. We have a house in Lake Tahoe but we live in Va. I am doing a project for school about the Olympics and I thought it would be crazy if you would write back and say a few things that you can't find on Wikipedia or whatever.

hey why are you not at the x games 15?

I come from a small town in Western N.Y. the City of Tonawanda. My 17yr. old son recently committed suicide as many others here his age have previously done. They all had a passion for skateboarding. There is nothing in this town for them and we are presently privately funding a possible skate park. The youth here need a park of this sort. We are seeking any suggestions you may have as how to go about this. Thank you

Hi Shaun We are from the Sports Medicine Center for Young Athletes located in northern California. We are a group of physical therapists that work exclusively with young athletes, but we also want to prevent their injuries. We are giving an injury prevention seminar on snowboarding on December 16th. We are huge snowboarding fans and this seminar is dedicated to educate the children on prevention and make them stronger for the season ahead. Since we are fans of your work, we were hoping you could help us out. If you are going to be in the area around this time, maybe you can stop by and sign a few snowboards...the children would really love to see you. The athletes here at the Sports Medicine Center are some of your biggest fans. I know they would love to see you, but if you are unavailable, maybe you could send some items for us to give out at the seminar. Thank you for your time and keep up the good work :)

Shaun. I need an address that i can send you a letter for and english project. Any way you can help me out? You ROCK, by the way.

do you have a girlfriend???

First I want to say that you are an inspiration to me and it's amazing to see what you've done in the past few years, especially riding in Alaskan back country (First Descent) and the NYLON Mag spread (haha). -I lived in Vail most of my life, then Princeton for a few years, and now I'm here in Chicago. I really miss the mountains...do you recommend any good boarding spots in the Midwest? -Do you play any instruments and/or have a band? -Why do some superheros wear underwear on the outside of their uniform?

Will you Marry me? please

man u r the most amazing person in the world, and i think that you always influence kids to try new things and do there best at it just like you, your like a hero. but my question is how is it that you really got in to snowboarding and skateboarding?and do u have a girlfriend???lmao!jk

Dear Shaun my uncle is working with your mom to get rid of the jeeps that you dont like and that you won the jeeps selling to my uncle and I was asking that can I meet you face to face and maybe skate together or snowboard together either one.

Shaun my Uncle working with your mom to get rid of the Jeeps your that you won and I would like to meet you face face maybe get to snowboard together or skate

{{hey shaun, just wondering if you ever were to come through the midwest, perferrably wisconsin, if i could do a short photo shoot with you. i'm an aspiring extreme sports photographer, (just got back from europe ;) ....) and think you'd be the most fun to shoot with. WI doesn't have mountains....but canada does! thanks ride on~ -M. ah, and you say you like rock, eh? you should check out rhcp's Naked in the Rain. they have a ton and half of fun with their music.}}

Hey Shaun,what kind of music do you listen to while snowboarding? because i want some music that will get me pumped.

Hi Shaun, I saw on the cover of a sports magazine after the Torino games, a picture of you wearing a ring with the Olympic rings. Now, that I am watching the Beijing Games, I was wondering if you are the only person with that kind of ring or do they give that to every metal winner. Hope to hear from you soon. From Tiggerina/AKA Hilda

hey shaun what would it take for you to go snowboarding with me and show me how to do some of the tricks you do? snowboarding is fun i cant wait for winter to come.

Hey Shaun. I live in Salida Co. About an hour and a half from Breck and 15 min. from Monarch so next time youre in the area, hit me up. Also, my 21st birthday is in Feb. Im going to Vegas and it would be a birthday wish come true if you joined me or at least sent me a birthday card. Thanks!

How come you choose a place like Japan to snowboard and not some place like Alaska?

Hey Shaun! I was wondering what your fan mail address is? Your such a rad rider and person.

What is your favorite movie?

Do you ever just have time for yourself or a girlfriend? I'm just asking in general terms, seems like you're super busy, do you like being super busy all the time?

1.) What got you into Snowbording and Skatebording? 2.) What made you sick with it and make a career out of it?

what do you like best about what you do?

okay, 1. How are you so incredible? 2. Do you have a girlfriend/what is her name? 3. WILL YOU MARRY ME? ...seriously, you're the best. oh, 4. what's the worst injury you have ever had as a result of boarding?

Hey thanks for answering my question but you spelled my name wrong its Stevie NOT Steve I'm girl. Oh and congrats on the bronze at the X games. Cool that you still go up there and ride! Keep Rockin' Shaun!:)

If you had to choose from snowboarding and skateboarding, what would it be?
