Amazing Tricks of the Winter Olympics

Shaun White ends his second run during the men's snowboard Halfpipe Final with the well-anticipated Double McTwist 1260. This trick was first done by 1980s skateboarder Mike McGill and now adopted by Shawn White with two front flips while at the same time spinning an astounding 1260 degrees.
