INTERVIEWER: Thinking back about February 8, 1998, what's your first memory?

ROSS: My first memory of the 1998 Olympics would be the opening ceremonies.  I remember how proud I was and how priviledged I felt to be one of Canada's winter Olympians.  I felt so honored to be at the opening ceremonies with all the other Olympic winter sports (this was the first year snowboarding was allowed to be a winter sport at the Olympics).  I also remember how the Japanese were so happy to have us there.

Ross: I have been preparing for the last two seasons and am looking forward to my first races in the new year. I must qualify for the Canadian Snowboard team by next season at the latest and sponsorship dollars will be the determining factor. Interviewer: The punishment you received
