We're going to pee in cups, guys.

I dreamed it. But I just never thought it would play out so soon -- you know, like, Olympics, gold. It's amazing.

I guess I was kind of distracted at the beginning. But then I chilled out and made it.

I wanted to step it up and go as big as possible and totally represent my brothers who have helped me throughout my career. Thank you, family. And thanks, too, for all that Vermont maple syrup. That's what does it, you know.

A different kind of family, I guess. Mom went to nursing school after having five kids, and Dad is a road construction foreman. Pretty cool people. I guess you call them hippies. They met at a music festival in Colorado. Dad was leaning against a tree, playing a flute, and Mom walked by and caught his eye. That's the way they tell the story.

Family is the foundation of everything. This is a family thing. I got my no-fear attitude from my brothers from back when we used to bounce on the trampoline or go to the skate park.

I could feel it, being caught up with the energy and emotion of the whole scene here.

I just kind of felt the same standing up there. It's like, ?Here we go again, another run on the pipe ? but at the Olympics.' I just felt super positive.

I don't know what I'll do with my gold medal. Maybe I'll staple it to a wall. Is that a good thing to do with it?
