It's really unexpected how well my downhill is going.

I took a lot of risks and made a few mistakes today but I'm really pleased with the result. I'm going to stay neutral about it because I know it's only training.

Top 30 was my only goal today. I will probably have the No. 1 starting position for the race, so that's perfect. I know where I have to attack and I look forward to it.

I'm not just going there for the sake of being there.

It's really unexpected how well my downhill is going. To be fifth in training in my first time ever doing downhill in St. Moriz, I'm really happy.

While other people were off eating turkey I was hitting the slopes and improving my skiing. I made some major changes that have showed up right away.

There's no doubt we can walk a little taller right now. We know that it's going to be podium or bust at the Olympics so we have top three on our mind.

It was difficult because I was basically the first racer down. It wasn't an optimal start position but it's a pretty good result. I feel like I missed an opportunity and didn't attack quite enough.

I just wasn't skiing quite right today. It's a very nice course and the snow is great. There are some big jumps here.
