While the Gold medalist pro-snowboarder won't be back for another Olympic competition, he says he definitely doesn't think he'll be leaving the sport 'anytime soon.'
During a reflective, sometimes emotional news conference Saturday, not far from the halfpipe where he’ll take his last competitive ride, the 35-year-old said that, yes, he’ll be hanging ’em up for good after the medal round next week.
It’s a decision that’s been building since a rough-and-tumble training stop in Austria in November. He was dealing with nagging remnants from injuries to his knee … and back … and ankle. He got lost on the mountain with the sun going down. It was one of those rare times when snowboarding didn’t feel fun anymore.
