Way to go Johnny! Man this is sweet. First of all I got to be around when Johnny won the world championships and now I feel so honored to be apart of this. The first Olympic Medal for a Nordic Combined! So cool I didn’t even realize how exciting this was going to be. Back in the day I was one of Johnnys roomies and it was always an inspiration to look up to someone so dedicated and passionate. He has come a long way with lots of hardships and injuries so Its cool to see this come together. And he has another comp left that he can charge at too! Go team. He was also joined by Todd and Billy who did an amazing job as well. They are big supporters of me and Billy told me today that he was so pumped when he heard that the first thing I said after my crash was that I wanted to come back. Its great to have team mates like those guys! I was very happy to be able to be a little part of this race today cheering them on and see them and their families. Johnny and his awesome wife Hilary and give a good toast! What a great Valentines day!
I also got to see some Jackson people which was super cool and yesterday we celebrated Montanas bday! So far Im having some fun! Hope you guys are enjoying the shows!
We are here in Whistler about to go live online, starting tomorrow. You can watch it at www.justin.tv/audiski TJ and I ran through all that we need to do for these next couple weeks. Its super natural and organic and Raw so we are just going to be doing our thing and having fun and trying to get you guys the inside scoop of the “THE GAMES.” Its hard because we have rules on what we can and can not say for TV rights and not stepping on the IOCs feet so we just end up messing up a lot and laughing so it might be pretty funny to watch. Either way it will be a good way to get some good info! How about the opening ceremonies! Super cool, loved the fiddle part!
So I am in Whistler…… did you expect that? I didn’t, but you know what I am stoked to support my teammates and watch a few races. Its raining right now and its kinda hard to get motivated, but I need to stay positive, this is not my olympics and its going to be sweet and there are a lot of kids on the team that are going to rock it! I am going to breath and have a good dinner and get my stuff together and hopefully I wake up tomorrow and its way better. I want good vibes, I want to work with people and help people and give good energy so I must just need some sleep.
Here are a few photos of the last days….. Lindsey looking hot and girls visiting Jackson!!!!!! I miss skiing!
Back on the road again. Its been fun, OGG, IAD, JAC, SLC, LGB, SAN, SB, LA, SLC, JAC, VYN, JAC, OGG. I have lots to do in the next weeks but for right now I am taking some time in sunny cali, exploring new areas. Went to my first live Super x in San Diego and it was awesome. Those guys are so sick, so on it and tough and amazing! Now checking out Santa Barbara and Jalama beach and then back to the ice cold!
Its been 12 weeks on crutches. I could be done with my first trimester of pregnancy right now. But…… things are starting to look good. I had x rays and things are looking a lot better. I was told I can start working off of crutches and that would be really nice. It has been a long time on them but a good one and all of it was on the beach so that was nice.
I am in Park City right now working with Jess at the Center of Excellence and had a stop in to visit all the big guys here and get some super good work from Jess and play in the pool. They have a treadmill and everything in it. I got to see some of the Speed boys before they head up to Vancouver for the big games. They are all stoked and ready to go. Good to see there energy and positive vibes! I hope everyone is getting ready for some serious Olympic spirit because its coming! TwentyTen is here and its time to start cheering on USA!
Its amazing how many times I have traveled through IDA…. too many, lucky they have a jamba juice now. Back on the road floating around, about to freeze. Maui is left on my skin kissed by the sun. Im excited to fluff around in some snow! The mountains are so powerful and give me such strength. Its not as crisp but clean and clear and stark cold nights with the whitest starts. I already had to dig my car out and have a family meal, Im so full, I want to be curled up in bed forever! Its HOME! I can’t wait to wake up to the winter sun and smell the sweet air. Hope everyone is having a good week!
