In some ways, that's the story of my season - when I wasn't making big mistakes, I was winning races and being on the podium. And when I made mistakes I was still fourth or fifth, just off the podium.

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.

I'm still having fun and as long as skiing is enjoyable, I'm going to continue to do it.

That feeling is the same whether you're on either side of the hundredths. Obviously, it's great to win the world championship, but if you put down that kind of skiing, it's awesome either way.

People in the U.S. will watch anything if it's put in front of their face over and over again. I like to see what's possible, more than anything.

I would say most of my style is driven by functionality and comfort.

Eventually I'd like to have a family. I'd like to not be limping around when I'm 50 years old.
