We're both kind of shocked. We felt for sure that (we'd) be up in the front and contending for a medal - two of us.

We're both kind of shocked. We thought for sure we would be, you know, up there right in front, contending for a medal, the two of us.

It's not going to be easy, that's for sure. If I ski the way I am capable of skiing, on this kind of hill, it could be a good day.

It's tough. There's a lot of terrain, it's steep, it's icy. This is what you want. It makes you wake up and charge.

I'd like to be wearing the red (leader's) bib in downhill.

I was back on my skis too much at the top of the course. Otherwise, it could have been a much better run, maybe fifth place.
