I gotta give Tanner some props for his attitude during the Dew Tour- the guy is standing at the bottom and congratulating every rider who has finished his run. He is in first place, as of now, but he is showing so much enthusiasm and acting stoked for every single person's run. He has been a real class act tonight and it's good to see out of him.

Yeah, Tanner has definitely gotten way better at that recently which I'm glad to see as he's kind of the face of our sport and I know he's a nice guy. But it's not how you win, it's how you lose.

been my favorite skier since day one....good to see him finally switch the attitude up but remember its easier to be nice when you're in first than when you're in last haha...so would be awesome to see the same thing out of him if he was in that position...but that's not likely to see tanner at the bottom

I think that if tanner was in dead last he'd still be stoked to see somebody else doing well.

tanner is what all pros should be.
even the kids at your local mountain that have a couple small sponsers and act like they are soooooooooooooooooooo much better than you. they should all just look up to tanner and respect everybody equally no matter how good/bad a skiier they are.

Tanner is the man. He has grown up a lot over the last few years. Great face to have in front of sport now.

I don't usually agree with what ehaeth has to say but this was on point.

It's been pretty cool to watch Tanner progress over the years.
