It's a pretty crazy adrenaline rush because I feel like every run is different. You can never really expect anything. It's like a new adventure every time you drop into the pipe.

Before I drop in, I tend to knock on my snowboard. You know how when you jinx yourself, they're like, 'Knock on wood.' My snowboard's wood, so in case I jinxed myself sometime in the past, I just knock on my board. It just makes me feel a lot more comfortable.

I think the goal is always to be both. I put more effort into the technical side of my riding, but style is very important nowadays.

My dad gave up his job; he stopped working - for me. Without that, I definitely wouldn't be as successful.

The strange anthropological lesson of social media is that human beings, if given a choice, often prefer to socialize alone.

One thing I've learned about life is that if you really let go, it's just a joy ride.

For me, when my agents and reps send me a script, I read it through, just for the story purpose of it, and then I read it again to think of my character and see if it's something that I'm interested in bringing to life.

I'll never get out of politics. I have friends in public office. I have things that I want to do. You can't go back in life. I won't go back to the existence I had before of running a political consulting firm and signing up clients and advising campaigns in exactly that way.
