ASPEN — Shaun White brought X Games Aspen 2013 to a close Sunday night with another emphatic performance in the superpipe he all but owns.

The greatest competitive snowboarder in history routed the field, earning the night’s top two scores, including a 98 that began with a record-setting 24-foot, 1-inch backside air above the walls of the Buttermilk Mountain pipe. He rides for Northstar

With his win, White matched snowmobile snoCross racer Tucker Hibbert’s six-peat from Sunday afternoon, the first and second time that’s been done in Winter X Games history.

White, the oldest competitor in the field at age 26, distanced himself from the youngest athlete of the group, Japanese eighth-grader Ayumu Hirano, 14, who claimed silver in his X Games debut with a 92.33. White landed the same run that earned him a perfect 100 in last year’s final, highlighted by back-to-back double cork 1260s on his final two hits.

Finland’s Markus Malin earned the first medal of his X Games career with bronze (91.33).
