Liz Swaney AMA Interview

I just received notice from Liz's talent agency that she would like a personal interview to explain her side of the story. This is not a joke. Per our agreement, I would only ask the 8 top questions according to the number up-votes on NS. Post your questions here and/or vote for the best ones. This will be epic.

Dear Liz,

Following the Women's Halfpipe event in the 2018 Olympics, on behalf of your non-technical skiing and low score (the lowest of anyone who did not crash), your run caught the world's attention. As a result, the world's top female halfpipe skiers who competed that day and have undoubtedly spent a far more significant portion of their lives training for the event than you did were overshadowed by your underwhelming performance. Given women's halfpipe skiing suffers from a lack media coverage and funding in general, do you feel your participation in the 2018 Olympics as a halfpipe athlete was an accurate representation of world-class women's halfpipe skiing that could improve the standing of the sport?

Sincerely,
mcswizzle

Also, what is your next endeavor? E-biking the Tour de France?

What is more viable sneaking into the Olympics like you did in 2018, by gaming qualification events? Or going the old fashion way and just sucking off the head of your countries' Olympic Committee?

Liz, big fan if yours and enjoyed watching your run in pyeongchang.

Any plans on making a run at womens slopestyle in Beijing? Dont let the haters distract you; jumping off the jib section takeoffs and grabbing safety or sliding down switch on knuckles as opposed to actually hitting the kickers are legitimate tricks.

Hey Guys! I just wanted to start out by saying I'm sorry for the delay in answering your awesome and sometimes weird questions! I've been busy training for Ninja Warrior and the L.A. marathon (my first one!!) representing the best team ever #teamkittenrescue! You can keep up with all the amazing work we do following this link and of course following us on instagram and twitter!

https://team-kitten-rescue-2017.everydayhero.com/us/team-kitten-rescue-runs-to-save-homeless-animals

Well here I am! I found the time to create a Newschoolers profile but don't expect me to post as much as some of you! LOL Let's get started!

JoeF2661Why did you reach out to skierman?


Hey JoeF2661! I hope your day is going amazing and thank you for your question. I reached out to skierman after a friend showed me his thread about me from earlier in the year. At first I was upset but I decided to chat with him off Newschoolers. It was a nice convo and he actually came up with the idea to do this! I've seen AMA things before but this is my first one and I have to admit throwing myself out there like this is both exciting and nerve-racking. I will do my best to answer your questions openly and honestly.

DeebieSkeebieswhat was it like growing up in Hungary?


Hey DeebieSkeebies! This is a hilarious name!

I've only been to Hungary a couple of times to visit relatives but its a beautiful country! Seeing the Parliament building at night, shining like a golden nugget on the Danube river is just breathtaking. Hungary has a lot of cool programs for underprivileged Jewish youth and I can't wait to go back there to help them further develop their awesome programs by introducing inline skating and of course ski halfpipe, my fav sport. Everyone there is so nice and welcoming.

Hey mcswizzle! OMG that's a lot to take in! I'll try my best to answer your question. For me skiing was a newly found passion and it allowed me to peruse a dream I've had since I was a little girl which was being an Olympian. I was honestly shocked by the attention I brought to this beautiful sport. I was only there to do my best and becoming the face of women's halfpipe skiing was an unintentional consequence. I honestly believe my participation that has brought world-wide attention to the sport will leave positive ripples in the lake of action sports for decades to come.

Nickc88Tell us about your skeleton career!


Hey Nickc88! OMG it was an insane and eye opening experience! Throughout my life I've overcome a LOT of challenges but skeleton was by far the most scary! You have to progress SO fast to have a chance at the Olympics and even with years of training, nothing prepares you for going 80 MPH head first pulling 5 Gs on turn 6 on Utah Olympic Park's track! Just saying that is a mouthful! LOL

Hey TrickyDick470! Yes I honestly do. I made it and that's all the proof I need that I belonged there among the best women halfpipe skiers in the world. You cannot imagine the feeling of being among the best athletes in the world while the whole world watches you. As of now I'm trying many things like the marathon I mentioned (finishing 13,280 out of 20,138 runners!!), freestyle rap improv, boulding and rock climbing BUT I have to say my main passion now is Ninja Warrior. In my heart I believe everything I've done in my life has lead to Ninja Warrior. I've been told I'm an action sport renaissance man or woman in this case! LOL

Everyone seemed to attack you after the 2018 winter olympics for putting your best foot forward, especially America.
The university of california is a great school, And i was wondering how you found time to Ski among your Studies?

There was the previous one where we all hated on her then 2 months ago Skierman posted this about doing an AMA interview. Now about a day ago 'Liz Swaney' appeared and is supposedly answering questions herself. Its probably a stunt to divert people away from realizing he is really Tanner Hall, something he has not actually denied here btw.

LOL your so funny! To be serious, I'm not thinking about doing the same thing I've done before. I need to expand my boundaries, like what is possible with myself. Expect BIG news on my insta in the next couple of months. Here's a hint, it has to do with the Olympics but not the one you're thinking about ;)

I know I'm supposed to answer one more question but I feel like I would be repeating myself. LMK what you all think! Maybe I'll do another one ;) In the meantime, stay positive, enjoy life and adopt some unwanted kittens!
