why hype ur slopestyle appearance and then then no-show?   Seriously atleast do a smooth stylie lapif you didn't feel like throwin down.  i love the man (all homo) but i was disappointed

it is a letdown but at the same time...the weather and the course were terrible and kids like bobby brown (who got his spot) are still trying to make it in the sport. Tanner was helpin out Bobby and not missing much

Although it wouldve been DOPE to see a slope run from him

I bet Tanner is off skiing powder someplace already, which makes me very jealous and has to be a lot more fun than that death collection of ice they are calling a course.

Competing sucks unless you have something to prove, and Tanner doesn't have to. There's your answer.

definitely, after xavier winning pipe tanner was stoked on rookies, and was just showing that he is the chillest guy in freeskiing.

Im a huge tanner fan but these kind of things are what add to the hate that he gets..like Ced said he may have not wanted to risk it but at least dont pull out at the last minute, it just doesnt fly well with the people that were anticipating your runs..even if you threw down half as stylie runs that still would have flown well with the vast majority of the skiing public, and for that matter, NS

How do you have a problem with that? They do it in every major ski competition out there. Its part of being sponsored man. Why do you think all the athletes get handed monsters/rockstar/whatever immediately after they finish their runs? To promote the product.

Probably didn't want to hurt himself and miss out on the cat/heli season which I'm sure he enjoys more than comps. Makes sense.

TJ's pro model is a the Dyanstar Big Trouble, not a great park ski.
