I Tried Retiring A Couple Of Times

There's Been Times When I've Been In Really Tough Shape At The Top Of The Course. Talk About A Hard Challenge Right There. I Mean, If You Ever Tried To Ski When You're Wasted, It's Not Easy. Try And Ski A Slalom When … You Hit A Gate Less Than Every One A Second, So It's Risky, You Know. You're Putting Your Life At Risk There. It's Like Driving Drunk Only There's No Rules About It In Ski Racing.

I Like To Keep My Private Life Private For The Most Part.

At This Point In My Career, I Have The Privilege Of Choosing My Partners. In The Beginning, You More Or Less Take What Comes In The Door - Or What Matches Up With Your Brand. But You're Always Subject To What's Available, Especially In The Ski World Where There Are Not Infinite Choices, Especially On The Fashion Side.

The Way I Judge Myself Is Not On How Many World Cups I Can Win In A Row.

Sometimes It's All About The Win, Sometimes It's About The Skiing.
