Meeting actors and TV personalities is one thing, but I just feel like meeting musicians is the coolest.

I remember thinking that I'd way rather give my parents my money, and not have to like have them go to work anymore, you know what I mean. Because I'd way rather spend more time with them.

The boarding I do is pretty strenuous and because I'm so active I really don't have to work out too often.

You have to be prepared to take a spill.

What does it mean to be a snowboarder? It's about having fun, with your friends or by yourself. It's about pushing yourself to try new things and do the unexpected. Finally, and most importantly, it's about being creative.

Competition pushes me to improve. If I see someone do a big trick, I try it.

I'm proud of the U.S.A. We've done some amazing things. To wear our flag in the Olympics is an honor.
