He is more focusing to pipe! He passed slopestyle so he could focus 100% on pipe!
Btw is it true that x games will stop in a couple years?

"focus on pipe"
subtitle: I'm still good at slope but I won't compete unless I win.
I mean come on, claiming a thing such as "focus on pipe" could only be justified if he rides pipe 10 hours/day this whole season (counting out filming) which we all know isn't the case. He would have to be so fucking caught up with doing alley oops and flatspins that there's not enough time to focus on slopestyle - meh, I think not.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm sure Tanner's been riding pipe a whole bunch. But there's no way It's his only activity...
aw fuck it, "focus on pipe" is just a sad excuse for not having the skills to win and it fucking sucks because as a fan of his style I'd rather see him as much as possible. So what if he doesn't win.
you think I'm full of manure? Then who always has the biggest anticipations on his shoulders every X-game? Who has won the most medals in all diciplines? Who whines about not getting gold over gagnier instead of being happy about being among the top athletes in the world, having the time of his life?
Now I HOPE "focusing on pipe" isn't a quote. Beacause if it is, it's just pathetic.
