Over the weekend, Shaun White won the slopestyle and superpipe events at the Winter X Games, so this seems like an appropriate moment to add this Rolling Stone cover story to the archives, written immediately after White won a gold medal at the 2006 Olympics. I am pleased that it’s one of two articles I did in the space of a few months where the topic of Jimmy Page’s stage clothing was brought up by the interview subject (the other one being this article on the Darkness).

People I met in television green rooms while following White for this story: Jerome Bettis, INXS, Catherine Keener.
