winning sometimes skiing
Sometimes it's all about the win, sometimes it's about the skiing.
busy productive
I couldn't be happier with where my life's at right now. I have great partners, I have great stimulating relationships on the business side of things, I've been really busy and productive.
racing danger skis
It is not that I don't recognize the danger in ski racing, but that I don't fear the consequences.
karma fun giving-up
Join the bold, the brazen, the unintimidated. Join not having excuses. Join the idea that fun is the source of all joy. Join the unwillingness to give up. Join doing things your way. Join not joining. Join that purpose is stronger than outcome. Join your gut. Join the constant challenge of seeking greatness. Join play. Join the hunger to find what makes you happy. Join karma and nature and the effect you have on your world. Join your philosophy. Join something bigger than you. Join what you believe.
school snowboarding skinny
I went through a period at boarding school when my coaches wanted me to switch to snowboarding because they thought I was no good at skiing. I was too skinny. I had terrible technique. They were saying I should be a snowboarder, and luckily, I resisted.
odd
Ski racers are built odd with overbuilt butts and legs.
essence community democracy
The best way to protect your own freedom is to watch everybody else's back. That's the essence of community.
party train-hard sometimes
Sometimes I'm disciplined, but I like to be a total slacker, too. I party hard, but I train hard.
couple together sticks
I tried retiring a couple of times and it just didn't really stick so, but at some point enough things conspire together and it does stick.
front people watch
People in the U.S. will watch anything if it's put in front of their face over and over again. I like to see what's possible, more than anything.
plan
If it's clear, it's clear. I don't plan to get disappointed.
bunch changing leader team
He's been the leader on this team for a bunch of years. There's going to be a changing of the guard.
absolutely board confidence goes looked moment saw
I absolutely skied the way I wanted, but when I looked at the board and saw that the way I wanted got a fourth, there was a moment of disappointment. But then it goes away for me right away. This was a confidence builder.
babies children cool kids liked spent three time
My sister has three kids so I've spent a lot of time around children and I've always really liked them and wanted my own. It's cool because you think all babies are the same but they aren't at all. They all have such different personalities. It's crazy.
