Haven't watched it but I feel like TANNER HALL should stay away from social media.

I'd watch Tanner get lit and talk for an hour about how the sport started. Take no prisoners!

You should've had Devin Logan in the poll to begin with! She is the most manly of them all and would totally win in a fight

Didn't this whole thing come and go already? Seems like T-Hall is digging pretty deep in an attempt to stir some shit and try to stay relevant in all the worst ways.


I have a lot of respect for the dude, his skiing, and what he's done for the sport...But he's gotta chill out. Him doing stuff like this is just as bad for the sport of skiing as the stuff he's bitching about.

My only question is, why in the world has it taken Tanner this long to respond. This thing came out in like February. I remember thinking "oh shit, Tanner's gonna be so pissed!" I though someone would have let him know before this...

It's like people are forgetting there are corporate entities with an agenda that funded this video. Plus, the title was misleading, should have been called #roadtosochi or somthing.

Everyone wanted them to do epicly latered, but North Face wanted a promo of their athletes to promote sales of their product.

Pretty sure Tanner doesn't give a shit about what Devin said in that video, he just wants the true story to be told, which was impossble like mski said, it was a corporate driven movie. I think iberg and tanner should make a "real" skiing doc.

Tanner is so invested in this sport, always has been and always will be. I'd listen to his side of it any day.

11/10 would watch. I'd also watch other pro skiers rant about how the sport was impacted after the competition scene blew up.

I liked the documentary, it provided a nice insight into the lives of a few skiers who have made it to a profesional level. Although they advertised the documentary falsely as well as the wording of the title.

That's so broad though, it's not just about competing.

Let me break this down for you:
Most of skiing is not that dramatic. That's one reason why I like it so much. It's people helping people and chilling out and having fun. That leaves us with two conclusions about the "documentary".
1. The drama, such as the coach/mentor woman crying randomly about how dangerous it is, was staged. That misrepresents everyone.
2. That shit really happens in that comp crew, in which case, those people don't represent the rest of us, meaning the movie doesn't represent the rest of us.
Either way, the movie did a shit job of showing what we're all about. I didn't start skiing park because I wanted to be a serious Olympic athlete and train and shit. I started because it looked fucking fun and the chill culture appealed to me. That's true for most people. They completely ignored all of that.
