I have the most fun snowboarding when it's just me and my brother.

On snowboarding as an Olympic sport: Since I was 6 years old I've been in the mix and watching this grow and change. I never would have expected it to go this far.

I love the sport of snowboarding so much, but I just don't want to talk about it, ever.

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

Usually the thing that signifies that I'm done with the winter and all that is that I start skateboarding.

My dad got me a huge board when I was little. He loves to surf. He suited me up and sent me out on this huge wave. I went under, and when I came out and the board hit me in the face. So I said, I never wanted to do this again. I stayed away until I was 13.

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.
