I don't put anything in front of taking ski racing and sports seriously.

A huge adrenaline rush is usually followed by a pretty low point.

At this point in my career, I have the privilege of choosing my partners. In the beginning, you more or less take what comes in the door - or what matches up with your brand. But you're always subject to what's available, especially in the ski world where there are not infinite choices, especially on the fashion side.

Despite all the pressure and the caliber of accomplishment, I still can honestly say that it's not all about winning.

If I could wish one thing for anyone, it would be to not have to do anything his entire life-just go along and when you feel like doing something, do it.

There's so many guys skiing so fast right now that you really have to be willing to take a lot of risks if you want to give yourself a chance to win. I'm prepared to do it; it's just a matter of if I can make it work.

Once the season starts for me, there isn't a change in my focus, just a change in my tactics and strategies.
