Should Jon listen to Tanner?

Tanner aka CCREWSOLDIER said that Jon should spend more time filming in the backcountry and trying to ski lines, implying that he spent too much time building jumps and learning double flips. I think Jon has spent his time well--the JOI makes a huge contribution to skiing. I'd rather see park skiing at its finest than big mountain skiing at its worst.

Hey, how about you just fucking call Tanner up and tell him what you think, faux_real, instead of fucking around on NS? Huh? No? Too much of a pussy? Or does no one other than random 15 year olds on NS give a shit about what you have to say? Yeah, I bet that's it.

Exactly. Personally I'd like to see both Jon and Tanner ski more big mountain lines and improve in that area. If they don't want to do that, however, that is certainly their right.

i had respect fro you untill you said this. Tanner is an awesome skier, and a smart guy who cares if he dropedout of high school,the guy owns part of a huge ski company, a huge ski film company and is getting paid out the asshole too ski and enjoy his life. Hes doing better than any 23 year old you know please do not make assumptions about people you dont know. And if you gonna ask if I know tanner yes i do and he is a nice guy and is quite inteligent. For the record jon is a fucking amazing mountain skier and won the Scandi Big mountain Champs 2 years ago agasint a stacked field that incleded kaj Zackricson soo in his own right tanner is right Id love to see a full part from Jon indluding bigmountain and huge jumps and urban but i guess thats not what hesin to this year each to there own man its allgood its all skiing. Making money hot bitches and sick doubles are the future shitmaybe latter this year jon will do dubs of bc booters and go to alaska and anialate some huge lines.. he has the skills and is in the top 5 all round skiers in the world

yikes people.
look, skiing is getting bigger. it's going to breed specialists, pipe, jumps, urban, huckers, big mountain guys. but there will always be guys who cross lines too (jon, pep, pollard).
personally i think it's a good angle for jon to ride out (or lead more accurately) the park wave. park domination favors youth, and jon's getting older. take a couple years to dominate that scene, and when the new 13 year olds are getting too insane take your skills to the backside (or AK).
but the real heart of the matter is, give props or go ski, there's no time for hating on what others are doing.

he should just do his own thing and not listen to anybody else's opinion.

that was such a waste to read all that. They are both amazing skiers, tho i guess tanner has some things against him, like being a stoner and all. But serious how many ppl here know who he really is...
I like seeing edits from them and they keep making me stoked to go skiing. So if they hit the park or the BC i dont care im gonna keep watching it and im gonna keep having an awesome time doint that

I believe it was a comp at Riksgransen, in Sweden. I am not exactly sure, but I know he did win one, against a field of guys like Kaj Zachrisson and other big mountain rippers. I'm not saying he is a better skier than those guys yet, but he was on that day.
