I love the cowbell. I think it's awesome. My family got the cowbell app on their iPhones. It's a classic part of ski racing. Lindsey Vonn
After 13 years of hard landings in gymnastics, one ski run had delivered the biggest injury of my career. Shawn Johnson
From 1999 to 2003 was the peak of equipment in ski racing. Since then, it's all gone in the wrong direction. Bode Miller
I don't look at it like that's my rival and I have to beat her. It's more like, I have to ski this as fast as I can and the fastest of everyone out here and that's what I expect. Picabo Street
I feel like, with ski racing, you need to have a short memory. You crash all the time, and sometimes it's a really bad one, but sometimes it's not so bad. Lindsey Vonn
I had crashes when I was small and Gumby-like that would have killed me now. I would just fly off jumps and go 40 or 50 meters when I was 6 years old - break skis, smash my goggles and get a bloody nose and go crawl inside for a little while and then come back out and ski more in the afternoon. hors/b/bode_miller_2.html#BXZWIA1TpkteO4iK.99Bode Miller
I had to think about ankle torsion, where the screws are on the ski, how that affects the forces going into the ski and how the ski bends, your leverage points. It was a challenge. I was having the greatest time, making the mistakes, crashing. Bode Miller
My coach, Liang Chow, had one rule while I was training for the 2008 Olympics: no skiing. I could do anything I wanted outside the gym, he said, except ski. Shawn Johnson
My team has been very unreceptive about the fact that I consistently show them that I train slightly differently than they do, that I consistently show them that I am in better shape for ski racing than anyone else on the team. Bode Miller
Sometimes I put on a ski mask and dress in old clothes, go out on the streets and beg for quarters. Mike Tyson
We're not necessarily the ski boat, we're the skier. There are countries like Japan and Korea and others who are the ski boat at this point, but we're getting pulled right behind them. Steve Largent
