Shaun White is unstoppable when he’s on a board of any kind.

White took home his 20th X Games gold medal this weekend at L.A. Live, after beating Pierre-Luc Gagnon on the Skateboard Vert. White’s final performance was scored a 93 by judges, which was just enough to beat Gagnon’s 91.66. Gagnon, a five-time Vert gold medalist, took home the silver while four-time Vert gold medalist Bucky Lasek took the bronze.

The win was White’s first Vert gold medal since 2007 and only his second Summer X Games gold.
