Last May, the U.S. Snowboard Team announced the list of players called up for the 2021-2022 season, and Sean White was on the list. This means that Shaun White, who once announced his retirement and did not participate in the FIS snowboard event for three seasons after the stunning victory at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, finally couldn't put down snowboarding and decided to chase his fifth Winter Olympic trip again. This season, Sean White has not played well in the World Cup and commercial competitions with the significance of the U.S. team selection tournament, but judging from the U.S. team rankings, it seems that it is not difficult for him to grab a ticket to the Winter Olympics. At the Mammoth Hill station in the United States earlier this month, Sean White, who had previously announced that he was infected with the new crown, finally chose to withdraw from the competition due to physical discomfort after entering the final stage, and only finished 12th. At Laax, Switzerland, Sean White made a comeback to finish third.
