Do the bad guys figure it out at some point and move out of camera range? ... Sure. That just makes sense.

We were suffering much the same at this point last season and I'm sure some of these guys remember that. The only way we came out of it then was because we started playing as a team, which is a lot like what I'm starting to see now.

Some of the guys say that's the only move I have, but I like to think I have more than just one.

I was really, really mad; really upset when it happened. It's one thing if you fall and go down, but if it's an equipment problem, like I've been having with the bindings, it really gets to you.

Back then I had to ski last on the course because it was my first ranked race. I should get a better starting spot this year.

I am going to prepare and train for it like I would any other race.
