At 16 Tanner Hall was kicked out of school and given by his parents one season to prove that he had what it takes to make it in the ski world. During this time he pretty much won every contest he entered and even today still hold’s the second most medals in X-Game ski history. What goes up must come down so eventually injuries and fast living lead to substance abuse and dark times. Tanner did the work and found sobriety, his drive and love for the sport helped him to overcome obstacles and now sober he is still pushing himself with contests like X-Games real ski and the Free Ride World Tour. Tanner grew up being inspired by snowboarders and was influenced not only by how they ride the mountain but even how they dress compared to the country club attitude of skiing at the time. Join us for this very special episode of The Bomb Hole where we welcome Tanner Hall to the booth breaking down the wall to the old school way of thinking with the us vs. them mentality.
