I didn't want to make a game unless I felt in the position to make something new and different.

I know my family and I would always go up to the mountains just for fun. We always skied. Then, all of a sudden, my brother started snow boarding. Older brother thing, I had to do what he was doing. So I started snow boarding.

I’m a big fan of doing what you are really bad at. A lot.

You show up at the Olympics, and you're no longer you; you're an American Olympian. You're part of this greater whole, and the individual doesn't matter.

I am a pretty recognizable, like, I walk through the airport or something, you are going to spot me right away.

I can kind of picture what I want to do and my body just does it. You feel your way through a trick. I close my eyes sometimes.
