Totally Tanner

Fri, 29 Dec 2006 14:09:44 -0800

One of the most celebrated freestyle skiers today with accolades that include Superpipe gold and silver at multiple Winter X-Games and podiums at three of skiing's biggest contests (US Open, World Skiing Invitational, and World Superpipe Championships).

Hall is one of the young innovators who is making skiing fashionable again — busting out with huge air and impressive moves that compound the exhilaration usually attributed to snowboarding with the speed and finess that only skis can supply. Although he's barely in his twenties, the press has already dubbed him "the best skier of his generation," and a host of gold medals, including the first-ever World Superpipe Championship, attest to his dominance.

"We're trying to draw the best skier-cross athletes, the best halfpipe athletes, and have them involved in one tour. I think it's going to be a great thing." "I'm excited because it's new motivation," Ralves said. "It's a way for me to expend some competitive energy. Just to completely drop off from racing, 12 years on the world cup to nothing, just free skiing, wasn't really going to do it for me. ...I think this is going to be the biggest thing to happen for skiing and ski competition in a long time.''
