My first two Olympics were just really devastating. Salt Lake was probably one of the worst days of my life.
My first two Olympics were just really devastating. I was so devastated after Salt Lake I thought my life was going to end. It was one of those life lessons ... realizing that life's a lot bigger than this five-ring circus.
For me, the Olympics was part of being something much bigger than snowboard. I had an awesome time ... I am a huge believer in the journey versus the destination.
This Olympics was about being part of something much bigger than snowboarding. There isn't a writer in the world who can describe the opening ceremonies.
This is my third Olympics in a row. I'm coming in as a dark horse, but this time I didn't think about the pressure or the press, I was just doing it for myself.
