Shaun White made the U.S. Olympic team in grand fashion — scoring a perfect 100 at the U.S. Grand Prix event to set himself up as a favourite to win a third gold medal.

The American won halfpipe World Cup gold and clinched a spot on the American Olympic team thanks to his flawless run at the FIS Snowboard World Cup in Snowmass, Colorado 2:27

White's winning run Saturday included two of the toughest tricks on the halfpipe — the Double McTwist 1260 that he patented and the frontside double cork 1440.

This is what a perfect run looks like. <a href="https://twitter.com/shaunwhite?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@shaunwhite</a> earns 100 pts on final run to capture gold at halfpipe World Cup in Colorado<a href="https://t.co/1BfsiSl8TP">https://t.co/1BfsiSl8TP</a> <a href="https://t.co/KiRjrQWIED">pic.twitter.com/KiRjrQWIED</a> —@CBCOlympics
