And two years later Tanner led the new trend of coming up short.

Because you have to land like a boss or because 95% of the time you get mugged, beaten half to death and lose half your shit all over the landing?

I hate going deep. Especially when it's first hit and you get the speed entirely wrong.

Tanner at his best. I might have to pop in 1242 to watch his segment again as well as Deschaneux(sp?), Olsson, Windstedt, Porrier, Cusson and Boyd's segments, all soo good.

I think it would be entirely worth it and justified to make an entire edit consisting of super smooth straight airs taken straight to the gucci plateau and every time someone lands, edit it so that the frame shakes like an ERFQUAKE. E-40.
