Shaun White's remarkable story of triumph extends from the slopes and beyond with the support of his family:

He first got into skateboarding after following his older brother, Jesse, to the nearby Encinitas YMCA. After he took up snowboarding at the age of six, his mother ordered him to slow down by telling him he could only board backwards, or switch, a skill that would help further his career.
