Daron Rahlves Top Quotations

I thought I had some good speed going in the top section and then I shut it down pretty hard and put myself out of the top 30. But at least I'll know what I finished right away. I'll either be happy or sad when I come across the finish line tomorrow because all the top guys are (starting) in front of me.

I was back on my skis too much at the top of the course. Otherwise, it could have been a much better run, maybe fifth place.

It was a little punishing on the top and it slowed me down a bit. But yesterday, I made a much worse turn, so I thought, 'OK, I've still had some good speed, I was ahead of it, and skiing pretty clean.' Then off that last jump, that was kind of a sweet feeling to hit that, then I get across the line and was really surprised to see where I was at.

I like this hill. It's a really active downhill. I like how it starts off with two challenging jumps. I had a huge smile on my face going down, from the top to the bottom.

I hit this one bump and got high-sided and I kind of went in there with way too much aggression today. Everything was pretty good in the top part, but as soon as I hit this one bump, it knocked me way down low and I just made it into the gate and after that all my speed was gone.
