You can only jump so far until you break your leg. You can only land so hard until something explodes.

You take a crash, you get back up and next time you succeed and that's a great feeling.

I mean, I get letters in the mail because I had a heart defect when I was one, I had surgeries and stuff. And so you get these letters in the mail that just, they are crazy, they are just like, yes, well our son is dealing with the same thing and we saw you on TV and I mean it is such a cool thing to inspire and kind of give hope.

I'd love to try and get a summer and winter gold medal-that would be amazing.

I don't know where my first gold medal is.

It's a pretty heavy thing that happens to me when I'm at competitions. I get so sucked in, I can't really turn it off.

I was sponsored when I was about seven by Burton Snowboards.
