Now I've got your attention -

He probably has a better chance of making the Olympic moguls team than slope or pipe anyway.

Someone embed please?

This would be pretty sick, tbh. It'd be good to see Tanner creating some kind of Olympic event.

If you're out there, Tanner, why not give it a go, haha.

Also, this makes moguls skiing look pretty badass. Looks like they're having a bawler.

definitely couldnt happen, tanner is significantly closer to making the olympics in halfpipe than mogul skiing. Have you even seen a mogul contest recently?

He'd have the aerials down... His turns weren't mind blowing but they still looked pretty great for someone who hasn't skied moguls since they were 15 (his stat, not mine).

... And wait a second, was that a THall callout just now? Do you honestly think you're a better skier than he is, and that he couldn't hang with you in the bumps???

I want what you're smoking.

OL is the steeper run, typically where they have all the comps.



While tanner used to ski bumps, I don't think he could compete at an olympic level today. The judges would kill him on his hand movements. He does have the pencil 3's down though.

Basically he would have to spend the whole summer training to qualify, and I think the qualification for the US team already happened anyways.

Eh, I wouldn't be too worried, it's just another discipline of skiing that the young kids have noticeably passed Tanner up in.

"I doubt he could hang in the big boy bumps... Come to OL tanner"

I dunno, sounds like a callout to me. Were you insinuating that he should come to Killy and get learnt' by following you around for a while? It sure seemed that way.

But yeah, you can tell he's super cereal about these bumps the way he was smashing booze straight from the bottle and dressing like a total fkn gaper on fat-ass skis and pit vipes, so I could see why you'd feel the need to criticize in some way. ;)

Clearly the man is hammered, having a great time and could probably cares more about his goggle tan than his bump comp steeze.

You actually don't need to qualify for the US team in order to qualify for the Olympics. You can absolutely independently qualify.

You just have to be top 4 in your country and have a top 30 result at a World Cup. Pretty slim chance of making that happen not on U.S team though, because you won't be able to get a spot at a World Cup.
