The USA's Shaun White has given away the snowboards he used at the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi to children who were flown there to see him compete by the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Ten-year-old Ben Hughes, who beat leukaemia, 19-year old Kaitlyn Lyles, who survived a rare form of bone cancer, and a 16-year-old leukaemia suffer identified only as Jadson were given the snowboards on Tuesday.
Thank you, @Shaun_White for the snowboards for Kaitlyn, Ben and Judson! http://t.co/FZzWr61kO0

The American also met the trio after taking part in the men's snowboarding half-pipe.
White came fourth in the event.
