four madness might next three
It's going to be madness next year. Honestly, it might come down to four 1080s, or three 1080s and a 1240. I don't know; I might not come next year.

What's really good is I'm riding really badly today. It's actually great because when I have a bad day it means I'm going to have a good day tomorrow.

I think it will get pretty crazy if the Americans sweep again.

I was out at the Y a couple days ago and I was just dedicated to learning that trick.

You just get your skateboard and you go out in the street and you figure it out and you have fun with your friends.

Well, I just started to have some fun. Normally, I drop in and do another (move), but then I thought, 'This is the Olympics, I'll try some sprays.

I'm proud of the U.S.A. We've done some amazing things. To wear our flag in the Olympics is an honor.
I just want to get better and better and I've been working on some new stuff.

I'm trying to hold it. It's just my whole family is here. We all came out to Italy. I'm just having a good time, I wanted to win the gold so bad, and I just kind of dug deep and made it happen.
amazing attention bring compete competition games half knows maybe people talk
It was amazing to me that one competition could bring so much attention to the sport. When I'm on planes, I'd talk to people and I'd tell them I compete in the X Games. Some would know what it was, but maybe half didn't. But everyone knows about the Olympics. They're really like the X Games for the world!

I've just had this fight since I can't even remember.

The U.S. has so many good snowboarders. Hopefully, we will be back next time.

It's definitely the run I've been working on for a while. It was nice to see it work.
barely best came definitely happened knew run
It's definitely one of the best things that's ever happened to my career. I came out here. I barely made it into finals. After that, I knew I could just do the best run I had planned.
