I was just trying to stabilize my board.

The silver medal ... is still a silver medal. The USA is on the podium anyway.

I was having fun. Snowboarding is fun. I was feeling great that I was ahead. I wanted to share with the crowd my enthusiasm. I messed up, and oh well, it happens.

I was caught up in the moment.

There is a real science to this. When we have jumps, we try to get on the ground as quickly as possible. You've got to remember, you're faster on the snow than you are in the air.

Definitely, the best in the world miss sometimes. You're always trying to go for it and go big and give it all you've got. Sometimes you pull through and sometimes it isn't your day.
