Not everyone in snowboarding likes Shaun White

I don't know Shaun White. He's probably a good guy. But sometimes when you're too successful, get too much coverage or otherwise start to annoy people due to your on-screen X-Games moping, people may start to hate you.

Case in point, Liv2Ride, who joined Generation WTF to voice his opinion on the Flying Tomato (note to mainstream media, no one in snowboarding calls him that).

Before you knock LivRide, realize I know him and the guy likes riding. He didn't grow up in a family of riders, is self taught and drives an incredibly boring four hours each weekend to shred the Ice Coast of Mount Snow. What's snowboarding to him may not be snowboarding to you and as a passionate shredder, he's definitely entitled to his opinion. The same way some skaters dislike Tony Hawk (note to mainstream media, no one calls him the Flying Egg Man).
