Is Tanner Hall a gangster ? well he definetly doesnt think so. He says himself the he would no way in hell would portray hisself as a gangsterand thinks that that is the most mis-understood thing about him. he also said that as he gets older hes gunna have more maturity and the young skiers are going to be seeing him living up to what he should be and really being a role model
well, he does wear baggy ass clothing, and he does talk like he's black, and he does ski to lil tryo- wanna be a balla, and well, he probably wishes he was black and a gangster or something... but he isn't. so i guess he just has to keep pretending he is.
tanner hall shreds way harder, has more equity and a larger bank account, gets more women, lives the dream lifestyle, does what he wants when he wants, and generally doesn't need to give a fuck about what you little bitches think about him.
and that, is muthafuckin gangsta. regardless of criminal intent or not. real thugs just wish they could make it by legit.
It would piss me off if he pretended he was a gangsta, like threaten to shoot people and shit, but as far as I know he doesn't. I listen to hip-hop, does that make me a gangsta?
He is good at flipping around in the air. He is the least skilled big mountain skier out of any pro. Hopefully you kids will see through Tanner someday!
have you eva skied Big mountain with him? we would tear you apart if you even tried to ski what he has skied. Tanner is sick, he is not a gangsta, he does not think hes a gangsta, and he is one of the best in the world
I have skied Big mountain with him! I wouldn't have said anything if I didn't know what I was talking about. Anything thats super exposed or has mandatory big drops he pussied out on. He is only interested in lines with gay 20 footers that he can throw lame 180's on.
I will agree with everybody that he is not a gangster, seeing as he is from Kalispell, Montana. What I will say is that he's quite the wigger(which he claims is racist, by the way), and you can't really argue much about that.
real gangs?, c-crew i suuuuuuuchhhhhhhhh a gang. One of the snowboarders in that squad is so gangsta, he wears nerd glasses. hes like reform. like the new age pirates who brush thier teeth.
Tell him how to dress and behave when you have all of those Winter X and US Open Wins, a huge contract with oakley and Armada, and a harem of girls waiting at the bottom of the slopestyle course.
Until then, you don't have to like him, but don't give him any shit either.
I seriously can't believe the bullshit I'm reading in this thread! You guys actually think that someone just like wear baggy clothes and not be gangster? Everyone who wears baggy clothes is or is trying to be gangster, no exceptions. Same goes for new era hats, bandannas, and condom beanies. If a person has any of these on, there's a good chance you listen to horrible rap music, get high on the 'bud', 'holla' at yours or other peoples boys, and rape small baby puppies in a Park City back alley while taking the lord's name in vain.
shut the fuck up. tanner doesnt even talk like hes black really i will admit PYB was a little fucking stupid but hes a long way from that point right now. quit hating on one of the coolest and best skiers in the industry.
during the early to middle part of his career, he was a gang busta. W-ski 106, Yearbook, sessions 1242, etc. are all movies that show his gangster'ness. Now.....hes a straight up tool. He tools on park skiers and says that the only furture for the sport is in the pow. I'm not saying that pow is not where its at....but that is just complete bullshit, freestyle skiing aint freestyle without rails, jumps, urban and what-not. So to sum it up, our once favorite c-crew member is officially.....lame as fuck
word!! i personally thinks he sounds like a fool with his wud yall, and ya and i dont think he is the best, sage pollard pep thovex to name a few, but whatever he hit chads switch at 55 mph throws alot of his tricks with mad steez witch to me is gangsta!!!!
as for mfm he claims (which i believe) to be from the hood and came to snwboarding late, and talks normally!!!!!!
stupid fucking thread. he is what he is, and he is one of the dirtiest skiiers in the world right now, so let him have his own style and do what he wants.
stop hatin. even if he is a gangster, or a wannabe, who cares? its not going to change anything or him. I can't believe people still haven't figured out that he doesn't give a fuck what u think, and the more u talk shit the more it fuels him.
hes still going to be tanner, whether u call him a gangster or not. maybe he is just in touch with his inner-gangster and likes the style of rap music? and the style that comes with it. I like rap music, alot of skiers do, of course the music we listen to is going to dictate our style, whether its the skiing style or the clothing style. music influences everything, good or bad, get used to it. in this case it was a good thing, I would rather see kids wearin baggy clothes then tight pants anyway. tanner styles came from rap music and the ganster image. so if you don't like the skiing style of today or the image then go listen to country and wear a huge belt buckle and a cowboy hat when your on the hill.
then we can question whether or not everyone is a "real" cowboy?
haha if the definition of a tool is: world class skier and x-games medalist then u can call thall a tool. just becuase he is better then you will ever be, doesn't give u the justification to call him a tool.
fuck, I'll be a tool, so I can win x-games, get free cars, travel the world, start a ski company, and hit chads switch. then start a ski movie company just to keep proving to you that I could show your ass up on urban, rails, park, backcountry, and big mtn.
and hes absolutley fuckin right, stupid park rats, learn how to ski before u talk shit on the guy who has pushed your sport farther then you ever will. show some fuckin appreciation.
