Snowboarding's tough, because you've got to go to the mountains. For me, I love the skateboard season because I get to hangout at home and still be skating. I don't have to travel to Norway or Japan or these crazy places to be snowboarding.
Skateboarding helps a ton with balance, precision, with air awareness... it gets your senses to be spot-on and it's also a great way to take my mind off things.
I'm proud of the U.S.A. We've done some amazing things. To wear our flag in the Olympics is an honor.
I can't stay away from Chinese food. I really love that stuff.

I've always been a guy who wants to play sports, not watch them.
I always tell people that our sports aren't that dangerous.
I've had dreams about tricks.
Surfers have the most attitude.
