I'm forever gonna miss the start to the finish, the rush of racing downhill.

I'm looking forward to free skiing the most. Just groomers, big wide groomers making nice big turns.

Follow your dreams as long as you live! Never be afraid to go out on the limb to live up to your expectations. Always do things your way and Have Fun!

My brother and Lauren are very close with me and they are in Sun Valley, so sometimes I need to go there and feel their presence. And there are times I need to see my bro' alone.

But to personally satisfy my own adrenalin needs, I've been racing cars a little bit, which has been fun.

I'm hoping that maybe everyone on the Olympic team thinks that I'm worthy to carry the flag. That's my next goal, to carry the flag during the opening ceremonies, if everyone chooses me.

Every once in a while I run the Olympic downhill in Japan in my head. I think of how the energy is going to flow and then I make it all work for myself.
