“Something I still work on today is ankle flexion—ankle pressure in your boots. There is no way to turn or have your skis carve unless you’re going down the hill leaning forward, and that puts you in a good athletic position to do whatever you want to do on your skis—make quick turns, make long turns, or absorb bumps.”
-- Ted Ligety -
“You've just got to get in the starting gate and throw down whatever you've got.”
-- Ted Ligety -
“It's my first Olympics, I'm very young. It's incredible.”

“I was skiing fast in training, but that really doesn't count for anything until you actually do it in a race. So to finally get to prove how fast you are skiing is an added bonus that goes along with winning the first race of the year. Any race win is a good win. I don't really care where it is. I've been on the podium a bunch of times here, but it's always good for your confidence to start off the year with a victory.”
-- Ted Ligety -
“If you're having fun doing what you're doing, you're gonna really want to work hard at it.”
-- Ted Ligety
