inb4 somebody raises the point of the finals only being 1 run and that was his advantage.
the argument could be made that TYW could have easily improved on his first run and got a higher score than T after a run or two more but the fact is it doesnt matter, tanner threw an 85 in his first run and could have easily improved aswell.
Just shows you can never underestimate Tanner. FUCK YEAH!
To the argument of this being a fuck you to red bull: It might have been a part of the decision to drop tanner because they thought he wasn't going to be able to compete with the top of the pipe game riders but the official line is that T and RB were heading in completely different directions in what they wanted in skiing and so a split was best for both sides. It's just going to make tanner getting another sponsor (if he wants one) even easier now that he's shown he is still definitely a force to be reckoned with and has an opening for a drinks sponsor.
