i think a lot of people dislike tanner just cuz he's the big skiing guy, like people hate on tony hawk cuz hes huge and everyone knows him, honestly tanner is where he is because he's a great skier, its not a mistake, who cares if u like his ghetto style or not, its about the skiing, his life is his own business.

Jon owns tanner all over the board, the only thing tanner may have on jon is rail style but thats it, Jon takes it.

Over time, most people experience life involing love, suffering, compassion and an unspeakable drive for something new...for me there's skiing, nothing more nothing less and it encompasses everything every day I'm out there. - Pep Fujas

i think theyre both so amazing that its so hard to say which one is better. tanner can do so much tech shit in the park, switch unnaty 5 reverse mute. and T can destroy terrain parks with ease and just stomp every feature. jon explores virtually every facet of skiing ,racing, big mtn comps, jibbing, so hes a better all around skier. hes not as good as T in the park, but T is behind jon for all all aspects of skiing

just bc tanner only does park and bc and jon does everything, jon is better

All save one. There, waiting silent and still in the space before the gate, sat Gandalf upon Shadowfax : Shadowfax, who alone among the free horses of the earth endured the terror, unmoving, steadfast as a graven image in Rath Dinen.'

jon definately, he can just do anything... tanner does have very good style, and makes everything look easy, but when you can do everything, you make it look easy too. and to that guy asking about the big mtn comp, jon has been dominating it for a while, i think he's goin for like 2 or 3 straight wins

Jon definitely.
tanner is too thuggggg, and he has no big mountain skills whatsoever, and although he tries in yearbook, he just doesn't cut it all around.

Unfortunately no... Tanner is not over rated, he is deffinately the best in the park followed by Candide (disaster cork 810 over 50 foot gap to down rail, i think that says enough) but outdone by many in the backcountry

Candides better than both of them. He just goes huge with insane style. Out of Tanner and John- Tanner on rails and pipe and Jon in everything else.

Jons good and all, but he uses nose grabs too much. they r cool but its kinda repetitive. Tanner has more style than anyone i have ever seen or will see. theres no question.

i admire jon way more than tanner because he isn't a pothead, as far as i know, and he has a racing background which means he CAN ski
