Q: How did you get started in skeleton?
A: I saw it in the 2006 Winter Olympics and thought, I'm going to do that. And I made it happen.
Q: Have you ever crashed?
A: As of this season (2010-2011) I get to update and say, Yes I have crashed three times now, once in Lake Placid and two times in Altenberg.  

Never heard of Skeleton before? Here's a quick run down: skeleton sliders lay face down on their stomachs, with their head just inches away from the ice, going speeds from 75-90mph. Take a look around my site to learn more about me and the great sport of skeleton.
