Shaun White is known as "The Flying Tomato" in the sports world, due to his mass of long red curls. I watched him during the Winter Olympics and Winter X Games, he's an amazing snowboarder.
"The Flying Tomato"Ha, that's pretty funny.Wonder what he'd be called if his hair was all blonde or black or brown.Hmmmmm something to think about.LOL.

Yeah, Shawn is awesome ! I used to skate a few years ago and he was a huge inspiration to me, even tho he's better known for his snowboarding carrer.
Anyway I know lot of kids who grew their hair long because of him.
I see a lot 13-14 old long haired skater/rock kids in my town nowdays which is always nice. But there are in general quite a lot longhairs in my town so I guess I'm one of those lucky ones which don't get much problems and insults about hair.
Sounds like paradise to me:)Imagine a world full of longhairs and no negative comments.Ahhhhhh life is good.

Well it's not really full of longhairs, but every time I go out I see some.
Anyway I've heard that in Finland and Sweden there are really a LOT of longhairs. That's probably because the metal/rock scene is really big in there :)
I want a trip to Finland LOL xD

Both countries are certainly worth a visit!
