Red Bull Project X

    In the winter of 2009, deep in the backcountry of Colorado, Shaun White and Red Bull embarked on a project like nothing the snowboard world had ever seen.

    A backcountry Super Pipe was sculpted out of the rugged San Juan Mountains, becoming the foundation for a training ground that would test the limits of both man and machine.
