I think he's looked a little flat in the slalom, but he has a way of stepping up on race day. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get some medals. I've been betting on Bode for years.

When he first came here, he wasn't a very big kid, and there was not a lot of discipline in his skiing. He wasn't strong enough to pull off what he was trying to do.

Bode is one of those rare individuals who's not deterred by a lack of success. That doesn't seem to be part of his mindset.
