I have the same attitude going into every contest. It's all the same.
— Red Gerard
I kind of just treat every contest like a normal day.
I try not to think too far into the future; I'm kind of a day-by-day kind of guy.
I'm living my dream.
I kind of grew up just watching Dew Tour and X-Games.
It's so hard to look at someone doing a triple cork when you're 7 years old, and them saying, 'I want to go do that.' It's not really relatable at all. So, if I can somehow make it so kids want to get into snowboarding, that's special.
I never really wanted Big Air to be in the Olympics.
As long as I land my run, I'm pretty happy with myself.
I was surprised to make it even to the finals of the Olympics, and to get first is above me. I don't even know what's going on, to be honest.
I won the Olympics. This is a dream, dude.
I remember, when we moved out to Colorado, I was struggling. The mountains were so big, and I wasn't really prepared or used to it all.
I don't have many 'I wish I could.' I live a pretty good life. I'm pretty psyched on my life.
I'm excited to join the Mountain Dew snowboarding team.
We'd go to the crappiest mountain because they had the cheapest lift tickets.
I'm part of a really big family.
It's super cool becoming friends with people from other countries because you can get their Snapchat and talk to them.
I try to have as much fun as I can, and I travel around the world doing what I love.
I'm not used to waking up early at all.
I'm really inspired by my friends. I'm psyched to ride with them, usually, and they're really fun to hang out with.
The practices are what I live for. They're so much fun, I think, just because there's not too much pressure. You're really pushing your friends to do the best run and put together the best run, and you're also just having a good time.
