Shaun White Snowboarding Game

Shaun White Snowboarding: Road Trip takes the action-sports genre to a whole new level. For the first-time ever, feel the rocky weight of the mountain push up against your toes in your very own living room, -with the revolutionary Wii Balance Board. Whether you’re coasting down bunny slopes or carving through black diamonds, don’t expect to survive this wild ride alone – you will need the support of an entourage and friends to make it down this mountain.

Shaun White has invited you on a snowboarding road trip. The trip begins in Canada, then heads to Chile, to an area based on the Alps, to Japan, and ends in Park City, Utah. Park City is associated with Shaun so Ubisoft wanted to end the journey there. This is where you finally catch up with him and can compete against the world champion. If you are deemed worthy you can unlock Shaun and use him as a playable character. There will be new challenges if you play through the game again as Shaun.

So you hop in a van with a couple buddies, and as you travel the world you can pick your character and your cameramen. When you're riding, the view you see is what your cameraman is recording as he follows behind. Each camera operator will provide the player a different power-up. The character you choose to ride as determines your skill. So you'll want to select the best pair for each challenge. There are around 11 riders to choose from. They are unlocked by proceeding through the main game and also through multiplayer.

The camera will capture the last 30 seconds of each run, and you can view this footage back in your van. The van acts as your hub throughout the game and it can be upgraded along the way. You select destinations from your map and check emails on your laptop.
