SIP CR. Still one of the coolest dudes I ever met. He was a great guy, skier and friend. CR basically pulled Tanner back from the edge when he was injured and hooked on painkillers. Somehow deep down I think he knew he was on borrowed time after his first injury and made it a point to be this amazing person who inspired everyone around him.
Also respect to [tag=21244]@4FRNT[/tag] for giving him a chance and his own pro model after his injury. I talked to him for a while after he first got signed and he was so stoked to be able to design his own ski.
The CRJs are awesome skis. They are super playful and can slarve and pivot on a dime, especially for 118 underfoot. I used to rock them at Snowbird and would just swing them around in super tight rock sections and trees. The tails are perfect on them too, there have been a number of times I got backseat after a cliff drop or booter and the skis just kind of levitate you back forward. There was even a cliff drop at Mineral Basin that I hit a few times with my old stiff VCTs and washed out every time. After lunch I swapped out my CRJs and stomped it first time back. They are pretty soft but unless its super choppy I never had an issue with them.
