good perks
There are definitely perks to being a good ski racer.
chance confident good race
I feel very confident in my skiing. I know I have a good chance to win any race I start.
chance course goes good knew
That's how it goes sometimes. I skied over part of the gate. I knew I had a good chance and of course I'm disappointed.
confidence hill people tough
Bode is tough on any hill he races. But there's a lot of people out there. The Italians' confidence has to be way up there after what they did at home.
disbelief
I was in disbelief when Raich went out.
gotten point talk
I think I've gotten to the point where I shouldn't be having to talk about Bode.
believe saw ski
When I saw (Raich) ski out I just couldn't believe what was happening.
prefer standing win
I would prefer to win standing up to him.
bummed
I was pretty bummed for him. I don't think there's any way I could have surpassed him.
disbelief sort
I was sort of in disbelief that he went off the course.
attention deserve
It's to be expected. If you're the best, you deserve the most attention for what you're doing.
expected hard words
It's really hard to get words for it. I never expected to be where I am right now.
hard
It's really hard to find the words. This is incredible.
feeling giant last race single skiing
It's something I never would have expected. I was only skiing giant slalom last year, but every single race I've been getting a better feeling on the skis.
