Shaun White Takes Second Dew Tour Win

Shaun White has taken his second win this year on the Dew Tour. According to the short article on AlliSports, “Once again unleashing his signature armadillo during his winning run, Shaun White claimed his second consecutive Dew Tour victory, topping Pierre-Luc Gagnon and Bucky Lasek at the Toyota Challenge in Salt Lake City. Leading throughout the skate vert’s final jam session, White also landed a fakie-to-fakie 540 in an insane run that earned a 94.75.

Despite the two wins Shaun White is now 5th in the overall standings, 72 points behind the leader PLG. White missed event one through injury so he missed any points but has scored 100 for each of the last two events. The finals are on in Las Vegas on October 14th to 17th.

I’m sure there will be video of the SLC event available soon, in the mean time, the results from the vert final are below.

Results
1. Shaun White, 94.75
2. Pierre-Luc Gagnon, 90.50
3. Bucky Lasek, 88.25
4. Andy Macdonald, 83.50
5. Bob Burnquist, 63.00
