By Angel Rodriguez, Los Angeles Times

Shaun White, who once trained at Northstar, did it again.

White scored a 97.75 in the third run to top Ayumu Horano of Japan who had set the ride to beat in the second run with a score of 95.25.

It was a back and forth duel between White and Horano throughout the afternoon.
