You know it's I worked really hard this summer. I mean a lot of improvements and a lot of equipment changes and in my -- on scheme this year was able to win. My first ever average yes race and actually got two victories this season so that was a huge improvement in. -- a lot of support from my coaches and had a lot of fun here and really tried to relax and Landon. I think that -- a little bit of an edge and I was starting to me islands at this. Was having fun and and I wasn't I wasn't too stressed out sometimes like in. I get to focus then and I get tight -- and knows he is as well -- -- liking him but this year was was totally different than. I think that was a huge factor in and my success this year. You finished the season twenty points shy of Herman Meyer's record Q without and -- catching harm in it meant a great deal you. How well in short this remarkable -- push you heading into taxis. Does that mean at that point it was really close then. You know it got a bit a little bit unlucky you know losing my in my pool of second and the Giants on race. A cup finals but you know everything happens for a reason I believe and I think this is gonna be big motivation for me it's Emery time. It's always tough in the summer when you're on the break -- you know 34 hours and you wonder why they're doing it and -- -- gold plate like trying to be in Meyer's record that they really keep me going keep me motivated so. Hopefully next year Eric and I can do it but. Just keep working hard and until it happens. Lindsay in a year you won your fourth overall World Cup title finished first in three disciplines and finishing this season twenty points shy of the all time record. Where winning your first event on American soil in your hometown and -- Colorado. Zeppelin the best victories in my career you know I never won. In the US before. You know is the first opportunity first chance I've ever had that. To race in beaver victories in my home my home built. You know it's it's always been tough watching that the men get to race there everything Lee Aaron and we never had that opportunity for the it was very special island. It doesn't put a lot of pressure on myself and I really wanted to go in for. For everyone's. Home and so it wasn't my best -- pressure but it was. At some nominated down and it was an amazing amazing feeling -- to have the support of near your hometown and your community. Right there cheering you on it is -- -- really really special. Of course we know you're Broncos and making disturbed -- teams going after your win in -- How you react to that news when he was traded to new York and what you think Peyton Manning taking over the -- in Denver. Well in I've been hearing rumors that means spending a lot of time in Denver and I was pretty nervous for awhile and then you know the news broke that his. You know they've -- they've they got Peyton and and Timmy is going out to New York City. And the near -- anyways so I am I'm -- bummed out you know I. I thought they had a great season last year I've really enjoyed watching him play in. I'm sure is gonna do great but the Jets but and that plane that -- that I really have enjoyed going not a problem Broncos gains and so close. For me Atlanta on mile an hour away from my home so. It's sad but. And Europeans -- grade and I'm sure Tim is going to be great in the dark. We know you're huge tennis fan Roger Federer in particular. What you like about tennis than Roger and -- -- your game. Roger is just. An amazing person you know he's really humble -- really down to earth he's the most successful in my opinion a successful tennis player in the history of the sport. And he's just so amazing to watch his silence so unique and he is he's such an amazing talent. But I think what sets him apart from everyone else is just his his humility and apparently he's always been minute unitarian and and and he can talk them like you know first -- you never know he's the greatest tennis player of all time. My game however is. Nothing short of terrible. I try really hard. But. Well maybe maybe one day when Roger's done with -- with his theory can help me but. For an Alley and just seeing it for fun and and that I enjoy watching him play. Finally I understand red bullet helping celebrate your season what are the details. Well I mean.
