mean way ownership
I really am a thinker. I don't do things rash. I know some of the things I've said or the way I act seem rash. But I do take ownership of it. I don't say things I don't mean.
winning giving guy
There's so many guys skiing so fast right now that you really have to be willing to take a lot of risks if you want to give yourself a chance to win. I'm prepared to do it; it's just a matter of if I can make it work.
winning feelings world
That feeling is the same whether you're on either side of the hundredths. Obviously, it's great to win the world championship, but if you put down that kind of skiing, it's awesome either way.
kids equipment used
One kid's old, used-up equipment is another kid's brand-new, awesome, awesome equipment.
mistake thinking challenges
I had to think about ankle torsion, where the screws are on the ski, how that affects the forces going into the ski and how the ski bends, your leverage points. It was a challenge. I was having the greatest time, making the mistakes, crashing.
winning race want
Obviously, you always want to win, but you want to win by skiing a race that you're proud of and you feel like you really challenged yourself and left it all out there.
fun long skiing
I'm still having fun and as long as skiing is enjoyable, I'm going to continue to do it.
nice bunch easier
It's nice, being brought up with no money at all. It's just not how I measure success, so that makes it a bunch easier.
change sports focus
Once the season starts for me, there isn't a change in my focus, just a change in my tactics and strategies.
people three should
The same people who recognize I came out with no medals should recognize I could have won three.
mom mother daughter
My daughter's name is Neesyn Dacey but everyone calls her Dacey. Her mom chose Neesyn and I chose Dacey after she was born. The mother is a good friend of mine who I was seeing a while ago. We are no longer together.
people faces watches
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.
kids school thinking
When I was little, I spent a lot of time by myself. When other kids were in school, I was skiing and thinking about things. I was alone on the mountain.
whole-life whole
I've been myself my whole life.
