When I grew up, I had a lot of fun ski racing with my friends. We pushed each other, and this made it easier to work hard.

I don't do ski racing to be famous.

I work a lot with my ski sponsor, Head, to develop new technologies.

I didn't know what it was not to work hard as I grew up.

Ski racing is probably the least guaranteed sport out there. It's really rare when the favorites win.

My parents never pushed me to ski race. It was my choice and something I really wanted to do. I would have rebelled if they had pushed me, and I wouldn't have had the same passion.
