Go watch his season edits. After winning rails 2 riches for the FIFTH time, I think we all need to take a moment to reflect on how much of a champ this dude is. That is all.
Not to mention this win is coming less than a year after a GNARLY knee injury. He's spent hours and hours on PT and getting himself back - really happy to see it pay off for him tonight!
He also didn't have his boots with him so he won using terrible Killington rental boots. I really don't know how he could ski in those things never mind win R2R.
It is, I was standing next to him when he was waiting for the winners to be announced and he had on rentals. The announcer made sure to point it out also.
we stopped and switched cars at 3 am saturday morning. he was half asleep and forgot to put them in the other car. drove back an hour during qualifiers and got his boots for finals.
