“I always go to yoga - I do core fusion and Vinyasa. My favorite poses are variations on the handstand and the scorpion. You have to use your whole body, it's physically and mentally challenging.”
“Around 10:30 or 11, I'll make poached eggs and maybe some Brussels sprouts - kind of random, but delicious. Sometimes I'll do bacon. I've been on a more fat/protein diet with fewer carbs and less saturated stuff, which has actually been feeling really good.”
“You need a GoPro camera and some fun mounts to capture the chaos.”
“I don't think I'm your typical rock-hard ripped girl. But that's what I love and embrace about myself. I feel good, but I always feel like I can be better. That's what I thrive on.”
“Sometimes I'll even have a dream of the trick I want to do, and I'll land it perfectly. And then I know. I'm like, 'OK, I'm ready. I want to do this trick.' But it takes so much courage.”
“I like the Dakine Ryder 24L pack because it's simple, it's steezy, and it's perfect for traveling. It comes with a padded laptop sleeve and a travel pocket at the top for your passport and other things you need quick access to.”
“My mom and dad decided to homeschool us - I'm one of eight - because they really wanted us to be outside and learn some other fundamentals instead of it being school all day in a classroom.”
“I have a glass of alkaline water first thing. I don't have the biggest appetite in the morning, which is kind of tough for me, but I always start with a green drink called Tonic Alchemy. It's a really amazing combination drink that has a lot of different superfoods and algae and Chinese herbs.”
“My parents have always supported me, and they still come to my events and support me each day.”
“I like to run and hike. I do some slack-lining, like balancing on the tightrope, which is really good for your entire body, but I've noticed a lot of benefits in my feet and ankles.”
“I remember watching the summer Olympics as a kid and knew that I wanted to be an Olympian one day. At the time, snowboarding wasn't in the Olympics, but I knew that wouldn't stop me.”
“I try to eat a plant-based diet, but it is challenging in the winter months and traveling all the time. I just do my best every day to eat healthy, wholesome foods.”
“Snowboarding really is a luxury sport.”
“Yoga always helps me slow down, be present, and be grateful for my health and well-being.”
“When I started competing at X Games, there was so much chaos that often me and my girlfriends would go into the trees and just take a moment.”
