The Inspired Media Q&A

Inspired Media Concepts was started on January 1st, 2010 by friends Tanner Hall and Eric Iberg. After producing the documentary film Like a Lion in 2010, Inspired TV was born.

Today Inspired TV has evolved into over 20 shows and has added surfing, kayaking, and BMX into programming. Along with feature ski films and Inspired TV, Inspired Media Concepts also works with the promotion of individuals that have goals and dreams. This brought the creation of other media outlets such as the Inspired Demo Tour and Tanner Hall Invitational.

What's up these days? A brand new international store (launching on Saturday), the next B&E movie (dropping October 26th), and then Inspired TV continues starting Tuesday September 10th with the B&E Show 'New York'... right here on Newschoolers.com!

Here's how this Q&A works:

1) You post your question in here (directed at Iberg or anyone from the crew)
2) You upvote questions you like
3) I choose ten questions, and send them to Eric and the crew
4) Eric and the crew chooses a few more questions, and posts the Q&A in the news section
5) You guys post more questions in the comment section -- they answer them if they want!

How much do you feel the subject matter of Inspired's projects will change due to Tanner's exit from organized competition? Will it stay the same or more mimic his path into the wild so to speak?

Directed at Phil and Henrik:

Since you guys are both style freaks I was wondering if you would rather see the next generation of skiers taught to throw crazy tricks to try to progress skiing as far as it can go, or would you rather see kids being taught to throw mello clean stylish tricks?



Also I would like to thank you for going on the Inspired Demo Tour and especially stopping at small mountains like Mt. Sunapee in NH. Talking to you guys definatly made me like skiing so much more and gained so much more respect in you guys.

As demonstrated by a number of questions in this thread, people have linked your skiing and lifestyle with marijuana. Henrik's recent successes in the XGames have exposed a larger audience to the skiing and "recreational activities" of Inspired Media. Do you feel as if these associations are contributing to a widespread stereotype involving freeskiiers and smoking dope? Would you say that Henrik's impressive accolades and his endorsement of weed are promoting marijuana use among young freeskiiers?

Why arent there more Armada/Inspired collabs, Honestly you guys have one of the sickest logos and a really interesting background with many talented skiiers. Personally, I would like to see more of inspired media in the ski industry, fuck what people think of your athletes or brand, you guys have a following and I for one would support you. The question though was
"Why arent there more Armada/Inspired Collabs?"

To Henrik- How many microorganisms are living in your dreads? How long has it taken said dreads to get to their current length?

To Phil- How much shit could you fit in your jacket? I mean the B-Dog has like a million pockets.

To Tanner, Phil, and henrik.

Do you prefer doing smaller film projects such as The education of style, blackout, ect.. Or being part of a larger team and doing movies with level 1, or pbp?

Thoughts on each?
