Jeremy Jones on Snowboarding
The attraction of snowboarding is the freedom it gives you. With a snowboard on your feet, the sky is the limit. You can do anything and go anywhere. This is not just for pro riders. It is for everyone. The other amazing thing about snowboarding is how easy it is to get away from people and enjoy the solitude of the mountains. It’s almost impossible in surfing, but with snowboarding, it is a short hike from the top of the lift or the side of the road.

When you back off, it’s easier to make mistakes. For me, it’s better to ski fast.

Sometimes it’s all about the win; sometimes, it’s all about the skiing.
As long as skiing is enjoyable, I’m going to continue to do it.
My goal is the same as every year – to not hurt myself.
I always do the contrary to what my coaches tell me.
