Has no one else noticed that they seem to be competing for who can overshoot the most.

In 2005, Tanner cased Chad's, then a week later, Simon overshot PC

Now, 4 years later, the next round begins. Expect a 'Simon Dumont overshoots a 50ft table by 100ft" thread anytime soon.

This may be my favorite post ever.

But in all seriousness, positive vibes to Wiley and Tanner. Heal up soon, our sport needs you both.

yup, and candide isnt even close to old yet, i could see todays biggest pro's going well into their late 30's even 40's and still killing it. people like candide and tanner are some of our sports oldest pro's, they have been there pretty much since the beginning, and they arent even out of their 20's yet, they are still practically little kids compared to some of the older guys in skateboarding, and even snowboarding.

Good luck on your recovery Tanner.

At least this happened at the end of the season instead of the start.

I know what T Hall is going through, kind of. See, I too fractured my left tibia at Stevens Pass. I was out for probably seven weeks before I finally said fuck it and skied on the last day of the season.

I really thought I blew my knee out when the injury occured, it turned severely black and blue, hella swollen and had to use crutches for weeks. I was lucky I didn't tear anything, I still can't really run on it, just a slow jog.

Granted T Hall is a god, has been through worse and has badass physical therapists, he will probably be shredding in no time.

According to one of the TGR guys....

"Just got the news on Tanner, which is very good. He has no ligament damage in either knee. He will have a minor surgery on his right tibia plateau. The left tibia plateau is fractured but will not require surgery. It will be a full recovery."

Good news.

That's good news. Tanner seems to have the worst luck. And i guess the annoying thing for Tanner and WIley is that it wasn't even an epic kicker they were launching off, just a dodgy trajectory

Props and vibes.

Luckily for Tanner. Tibia plateau fractures heal fairly fast. I dont know about a double fracture tho. just one fracture is about 3 weeks crutches. then like a month or more of rehab. Im guessing as long as there is no ligament damage, he'll be skiing in 2 months. but i dont know sonce it is a double break.
