I feel very confident in my skiing. I know I have a good chance to win any race I start.
It's said that Norwegians are born with skis for our legs. That's why we always win the Olympics.
I'm a black-diamond skier and can dance the whole night - if I find a good partner!
I learned how to ski for 'Eddie the Eagle.' I never skied before. So I had to go out to Germany a couple of weeks early and make sure I could ski.
My dad is a phenomenal skier.
I don't think there's a direct correlation between my sexuality and my skiing ability. But I think because I was so concerned about it being found out, it was a distraction.
I have been skiing since I was in school, but I'm not great. I am never going to break an Olympic record, I just want to go down the hills, on red or blue runs, but not... black.
My boyfriend's idea of a lesson was to take me on a black diamond run in the middle of a hail storm and say, 'Go!' Ski patrol had to escort me to another lift to get me down the mountain. No, that wasn't humiliating, not at all.
I've had a lot of people tell me, 'Yeah, sure, you're good at slalom, but wait till you get to the real events like downhill or super-G.' I don't like hearing that.
I can ski backwards on one ski. And foldblinded!
I didn't start skiing until I was 50. My wife Lois taught me how to ski. I'm proficiently conservative.
I ski every three years or so. I don't have the ingrained confidence that others do, but I'll happily toddle about a green or blue run.
I've only skied a couple of times in my life. Any skier would say I stink.
I'd encourage anyone at any level to take lessons, as it really can turn you into a different kind of skier.
I'm dreading being on a ski cross with other skiers who don't know what they're doing.
When I was 3 years old, I thought I was very good at skiing.
