My bet is on he skis for america, I mean why wouldn't he. But for some odd reason he doesn't get put onto the american pipe team, who knows maybe Tanner will be smoking some Chinese weed somtime soon.

Credit to Brobomb, lots of sick stuff on there.

"In related news, China’s embassy in the United States has issued a surprising statement offering over-the-hill American pipe skiers Tanner Hall and Simon Dumont honorary citizenship if they’ll ski for China. There’s been no word on whether they’ll accept the offer, but Oakley has confirmed that Tanner’s 2012 pro model jacket will feature yellow stars on a red background rather than his customary red, yellow, and green."

lololol

He didn't do JOSS because he had an Alaska trip planned, and he skipped slope finals one year because he didn't want to hurt himself. Is that so bad?

I think his ability to compete depends on his recovery. If he can get past his injuries I'm sure he'll be there. He has the comp results and the skill to be in any pipe comp.

Which is why he turned down a sponsorship with Rossi and accepted a sponsorship with armada that payed less. Armada probably would t be what it is today without him not selling out

i bet if china puts one of their 15y old gymnast kids on skis right now, they have a pipe champion by 2014 ....


that's probably a much better idea than choosing a laid back freestyler ....
