man, sometimes i don't understand some arguments, or how some people here thought they were making a point: if tanner hasn't gotten hurt in years, is it because he is a better skiier?
try maybe because he does the same tricks he knows he has (do not get me wrong, chads switch is insane, yet still, he was with jon apparently, so he is not above all else, so stop acting as if he was a god), whereas candide goes uge all the time, trying tricks that no one thinks possible until he sticks it.
as for chads, its named after chad zurinskas, who DID NOT CLEAR IT! he was the one who tried it first, but he cased 2 times and left it at that. it was candide who cleared it first, at 16, the first guy to ride away from it, and whilst pulling a dspin 7 might i add.
tanner is a sick skiier, his wins in X prove that, but as we saw this year, his 'stock' runs don't cut it anymore, and i have yet to see innovation other than on rails from him.
candide is a better skiier, end of story.
as far as tricks are conscerned, tanner has more variety, and pulls his tricks better then anyone, in the park.
but candide pushes it to the max, doing insane things (810 to rail, chads) and also pushes the sport: the candide invitational is one of the best comperionts out there, in concordance with the spirit of the sport, he pushes the sport in general and gives it a good, solid reputation.
tanner, always blazed on something, doesn't help much in that sense, and makes the lot of us look bad (i went down, did tricks, and landed).
candide is the weapon of choice, tanner the poster boy.
