I've found that when an athlete is talking about or promoting a sport that isn't huge like soccer or tennis etc they'll generally put a lot of time and thought into what they say. I'm sure Tanner will do just fine.

I am sure that he understands %100 what that would do for our sport.  I have faith in him and that he will go on the show and do very well and rep our sport!  That's awesome that he is going on a show that big that millions of americans watch!  Mad props to him!  Tanner likes to party, he has that rep, but when it comes to be serious he knows how to take care of business and get it done!

Tanner is the man but I worry he will talk too much gangsta yeah buddy gnar gnar stoke the fire chat that the people who he is needing to put the message across to won't understand.

They will be like:
"what country is this guy from?"
"IDK but he sounds american yet, what are these words he uses?"
"I'm not sure, what does he want?"
"Well one thing's for sure, he doesn't want half pipe to be an Olympic sport!"
"yeah course not, who would want that?"
"Ha, yeh exactly, lets go for a beer"
"good plan"

If this is legit, I hope he steps up and throws down the hammer for us. It would be epically huge for our sport to get into these olympics

He is probably the best person for the job. he is by far the sickest pipe skier around. The only thing he need to do is shave.

There is zero chance this is true, if you had said Simon I may have believed it because he was just all over the media. And the chance they would have just some random skier to go talk about the 2010 olympics is dumb, NBC would put that on Conan or Carson Daily. And July 14th is a Monday, they have the biggest guests on Monday so more people will watch (this is why headlines is monday too) and promote for the rest of the week.
