From 1999 To 2003 Was The Peak

I Still Love Racing And The Challenge Of It, But At Some Point, You Get To A Place Where You're Perfectly Happy Moving On And Doing Other Stuff.

When You Back Off, It's Easier To Do Mistakes. For Me It's Better To Ski Fast.

At The End Of The Day, You Have To Make Sure You're At Least Listening To What Your Head Is Telling You, What Your Heart Is Telling You. That's Hard To Do When There Are A Million Other People Shouting As Loud As They Can.

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.

Once The Season Starts For Me, There Isn't A Change In My Focus, Just A Change In My Tactics And Strategies.
