Kelly Vanderbeek Quotations

It's about a 12-second GS course, that's my home hill.

My whole family is here. They've been unbelievable. It was nice to do it on this day at the Olympics and really show the world that I can ski.

It would be nice to have two medals between us.

I'm happy but devastated at the same time. The disappointment really hit when I watched the girls on the podium and heard the national anthem. This gives me a lot of motivation for the next races and the upcoming ski racing seasons. 2010 still seems far for now but I'm definitely motivated for skiing at my best in Vancouver.

It's huge. To have a gold medal already, it's a very big deal. Here we go. Let's keep it going.

I knew at the start gate that Francois Bourque was fourth and there is a part of me that said 'I don't want to be fourth, I'm going to give everything I have,' and I came fourth.

I was trying to hold the race line and I went full speed just to see how the course skis today.
