In skateboard vert, White took the lead in his second run, showing finesse and amplitude with a combination of 540s and 720s. Many of Whites competitors fell during their runs while attempting to unseat him.
The 21yearold White, from Carlsbad, Calif, earned a score of 92.00. Bucky Lasek, of Encinitas Calif. finished second with 88.25 and Brazils Bob Burnquist was third with 87.25.
I missed the first stop in Baltimore because of an injury, White said. I just wanted to come out and put something down and it happened. I havent been skating my best lately but everything clicked for me today.
