You know the best thing about competition? There's this whole strategy game, and when it all works out its like solving that hard math equation. You finally get the answer and you're so happy.

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

Skateboarding helps a ton with balance, precision, with air awareness... it gets your senses to be spot-on and it's also a great way to take my mind off things.

When the pressure's on, I always seem to go bigger and land everything better.

I usually eat a pretty big steak the night before I compete.

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.

Skateboarding is training, but I don't think of it as training. It's fun.
