Tanner Halls says YOUR not acctually Skiing!

hahaha he sounds like my old roommate from guam. seriously though, i'd be going off if I just saw Candide send that run live in-person.
 
As long as your skiing, and having fun with it, your doing "real skiing".

Weather that be in the park, on groomers, in the middle of some big city or on a huge ass mountain, yeah even skiracing or crosscountry, that´s real skiing.
 
god damn 6 pages so fast. tanner is retarded to group skiing into one category. there is racing, big mountain, park and pipe. so what he said just circle jerked everyone
 
i love how he dedicated his half life to pipe and now talks bull about it :P hahahahaha this is so funny.
i guess if he still was skiing pipe, he would say pipe is real skiing ^^
 
im so fucking sick of hearing poeple, and now tanner, say that if you dont ski powder and big mountain your not a skiier. fuck skiing is about having fun, and if you have fun hitting a rail, slashing powder, hitting booters, ripping zipper lines or smashing gates on a rac course then fucking do it! have fun how you have fun and dont judge other people how they have fun.

fuck you tanner, your a cunt.
 
Hey, I think that you all forgot something : Tanner speaks about "real skiing" as skiing powder, without any pre-defined lines and prepared slopes ... just remember that THAT was the beginnings of skiing, even racing was like "start point" and "end point" and well, just be the fastest down ! The first jumps have been made over cliffs, and over naturally shaped jumps ... I think that's what he meant "back to the roots" dudes. I agree on the ideas, not really on the form he put on it, I think there's no need to criticize lots of skiers who are just having fun like that, but I also think everyone has to remember of where their sport comes from !
 
i think he just wanted to say that skiing is not only shreddin park. You add some weed en Genepi and you have Tanner's interview. i don't know if he is friend with, West, Dumont or Olenick, but personally I do not apreciate if I was Dumont.

And Tanner, keep talking with your weird accent, it's easier for me! ahahah
 
Well, i guess it speaks volumes that he deleted it now, woopsy!
I think we can write it off as an drunken/high rant, i think we've all been there. I don't agree with what he says, i don't belive there's any part of skiing that is more "real" than any other, but we've all talked bullshit, and said not so well thought through things at one point, so it's all good. Tanner is an icon, and his skiing is dope as hell, and like someone else said, it's kinda refreshing with someone just ranting on, all stoked and high!
For some reason i think that if he'd been at a rail jam, and someone stomped some crazy shit, he'd be equally as stoked, he's just a stoked guy!
To all the people taking this as a stamp of approval that big mountain skiing is "real" skiing, and better than other forms of skiing, way to over interpret, i guess Tanner's statements helped you sooth some sort of underlying insecurity about your skiing. That's all good as well, i'm gonna go hit a rail now, and do some REAL skiing!
 
DIdnt he say in Reasons somthing along the lines of "skiing is skiing its all fun" somthing like that I will find the exact quote later?
 
Drop Jon? I don't think so. Jon actually rips big mountains. He also has a chance to be a Swedish Olympian in 2014. He is exactly the sort of skier we need. Tom Wallisch should be dropped before Jon. I guarantee that if you took a poll on TGR Jon would come out ahead of T Wall.

As far as skiing goes....Whatever floats your boat. I will say,however, that I don't know anyone who can rip the mountain who would rather ski park.
 
Tanner just put together one of the best pipe edits I've ever seen, in Everyday is a Saturday. Now the man with 3 X-games pipe wins in a row and a skiing career pretty much built off of pipe skiing goes and tells us that pipe skiing is for roller bladers? Considering he has some pretty good connections with the rasta world, I wanna get my hands on whatever he's been smoking.
 
he better have apologized. . . even though he was clearly blazed. he had no right to say that that style of skiing is any more real than any other one.
 
i kinda agree with him, but you still gotta let skiing evolve, i would like to see alot more of the backcountry park thing, like Dane Tudor does
 
alright, i haven't seen it yet either, and would really like to, but i bet it's been deleted off of the internet for good
judging by what people have been saying, it probably should be deleted, and his apology is at least sincere.
and i'm not gonna lie, i really wanna see it, but it's not my business if it's really THAT hurtful.
so ns, chill the fuck down, i bet 90% of the population of ns has something REALLY embarrassing that if ns caught hold of, they would get torn to pieces...
 
most of the kids hittin rails all day dont have cliffs to hit. so many kids doin what they can at a hill with a rope tow. Its terrible to see a skiing icon be so ignorant.

Nice thread shane +kl
 
Ya cause out hear in Western New York hitting a maximum of 3 inches of pow a year that really is just sitting on hard-pack and icy ass runs and huge ass lift lines that takes longer to get up the hill then to get down the hill is so much more fun and real than the park. I mean what do u expect? Of course im gonna be in the park.

Tanner who gives a shit about what people ski. u ski what u want and i ski what i want. doesn't affect anyone but me
 
What he was saying has nothing to do with you.

Pull the stick out of your ass. Wouldn't you want to ski better mountains if you could?
 
Wait, I still dont understand why people care what someone says either way? Whatever happened to doin yo own thang havin a good time and realizing is just that, skiing...
