Every time I've had a bad performance at an event, I've come back more determined and focused.

The Olympics is really awesome, but for some snowboarders, it's not the biggest thing in the world.

I guess I'm an athlete now. I gotta start going to the gym.

I didn't set out to beat the world; I just set out to do my absolute best.

It's tough now to meet a girl who wants to hang out with you because she likes your personality - who hasn't seen you on TV and is like, 'Hey!'

I get e-mails from mothers asking me to call their daughters for a date. I have a great life.

I knew there was a certain level that I could get to within the sporting world. But as I continued with my career, not only did I grow, but the sport grew. All of a sudden, all of these doors opened to me. It's been amazing. I guess I was born at the right time.
