“That felt better than most of my races this year. I've had a real hard time this year with my skiing, it just hasn't been there. I still don't think it's there.”
“I didn't do the right training over Christmas because of the trials. I think the year before, I didn't have to travel back to the U.S. I got to do really quality training, and except for a little sickness in January, I had pretty good skiing and results in 2005.”
“I had to travel back to the U.S. and I wasn't in a comfortable, happy place and I didn't really get to train; I had to prepare for racing. And then I had to come back over to Europe and I was tired from this incredibly stressful race experience.”
