based basically bunch causes deals exploring helping network online options social sports turtle worthy
I've been exploring different options for when I'm done skiing. I have the Turtle Ridge Foundation, which is helping a bunch of worthy causes around the Northeast. I've also started SkiSpace, which is an online social network that basically deals with all things based around any snow sport.
It's not quite as important who you beat as that you end up on top.
exposure growing ipod minimal mom music played six songs tape
My mom played the recorder. But not having electricity, we had minimal exposure to music. As I got a little older, we had Walkmans and things that were battery-powered, but it would have been nice to be growing up in the iPod era. A tape only has six songs on a side.
I always do the contrary of what my coaches tell me.
coming people radar ridiculous
People think coming in under the radar is like being a fighter pilot and actually coming in under the radar. It's a completely ridiculous idea to come in under the radar. It's the Olympics; everyone is on the radar here.
chance coming great ski
I've not had a great slalom all year, but I feel the slalom is coming together. I know I can ski well on the downhill, so I have a chance in the combined.
olympics stuff
The stuff after the Olympics was pretty aggressive.
nine
I'm not very sentimental about anything. I haven't been back here in nine years.
changed job kid needed pay ski somewhere travel warm weather
Nothing's changed about me. It's no different than when I was a kid and I wanted to ski during warm weather but needed to travel somewhere else to do it. So I got a job to pay for it.
beers few
I had dinner. Then I had a few beers with friends and went home.
great knew time watch
I had a great time at Nagano in 1998, when no-one knew me and I could do what I wanted. I went out with my friends and went to watch all the sports.
competition cup
The World Cup has no competition at the moment, the whole thing is a little rusty.
battle downhill finished good half people
I've straddled probably more times than most people have finished slalom. It's a drag, but the downhill was good and I made it to the finish. That's at least half the battle for me.
finished people
I've straddled probably more times than most people have finished slalom.
