Recently, Wikinews spent time with with Australian Paralympic skier Lincoln Budge who was in Copper Mountain, Colorado for this week's IPC Nor-Am Cup.
((Wikinews))  I'm interviewing Lincoln Budge, one of Australia's development team skiers, who is here at the IPC [International Paralympic Committee] Nor-Am Cup and you're not skiing today?
((WN))  Ooh, a DNF [Did not finish].
((WN))  So how have you preformed in the past days? 
((WN))  What classification are you?
((WN))  Are you shooting for Sochi or are you just kind of developing now with the idea of the next one [Winter Paralympics] in 2018?
((WN))  And you're from some town that's really hard to pronounce in Australia.
((WN))  What state is this in?
((WN))  So Victoria is the state that produces all the great Australian skiers?
((WN))  How long have you been in the development team?
((WN))  On the development team or just period?
((WN))  You never considered doing the nordic skiing?
((WN))  Where do you like to ski and which, like Super G, Slalom, is your favourite?
((WN))  Where do you like to ski? Are you one of these people likes to come to the US, or do you think Victoria's got the best ski fields in the world?
((WN))  Considering how expensive skiing is, do you think you're getting adequate support from everyone to enable you to continue your ski career? 
((WN))  As someone watching skiing: can you throw your monoski over your shoulder and transport it that way?
((WN))  Ok, thank you very very much.
