You're probably hyper aware that Roxy's perma-happy, super talented Aussie snowboarder Torah Bright won gold in the Women's Halfpipe at the Vancouver Winter Olympics last week. However, not all of us were able to catch it live. And while Shaun White and the Men's pipe contest is all over TV, the women's, although no less exciting, is less so...
But don't fret: after some careful hunting I've managed to track down a tonne of interviews with the Roxy star - unsurprisingly, most from Australia.
Thankfully the BBC have posted the highlights online - including Torah's winning run, after her stack on the first which she recovered miraculously from. And also, why Shaun was on everything from Oprah to TWSnow, interviews with Torah post her win are a bit thin on the ground. (If she was an American we can bet that would be a different story...)
World Sport caught up with her before the Olympics kicked off:
ABC Australia have gone old school, and posted an MP3 of an interview with Torah online - which, although conducted by a non snowboarder old-school type, is actually pretty good.
AOL's Olympic Fanhouse have also done a good job, with Ms Bright visibly glowing with happiness and living up to her name during their video interview.
MSN have been on it as well, posting a nationally broadcast interview on A Current Affair which is pretty funny.
After a conversation with Aussie prime minister, Kevin Rudd, after she found out she'd won gold, Bright's also been confirmed to appear on a postage stamp down under this year. And, the live broadcast of her gold medal awards ceremony has caused a media uproar in Aus - and a blazing row between the two biggest broadcasters, Channel 9 and Foxtel.
And CNN's roving community reporter Chris Morrow filmed her own DIY interview with Torah too...
