You can't post anything on their fb page... it seems that we can only comment and like what they post.

it's a way of rubbing it in their face that they dropped t hall. When t hall is stoked on being supported for the 10 years he was signed by them. Red bull does a lot for our sport so let's not be a bunch of immature children and spam "non-offensive" images on their page

hey man check out this news story from a few days back https://www.newschoolers.com/readnews/5457.0/Powder-Magazine-on-the-great-sponsor-divorce-of-2012
didnt seem mutual to me, and im sure tanner respects redbull for the support he got throughout the years. regardless t hall killed it by winning nz, and since he cant really do anything else to prove himself its up to us immature children to make a point of it. its not only about rubbing it in their faces, its showing them that tanner can murder under any circumstance. stop posting on a site full of children you pedofile

i'd already read that article. It really doesn't matter if it was mutual or not, Red Bull isn't the only one that doubted T hall's ability to come back. It's bitter sweet revenge by Tanner to come up on top, and I'm fucking stoked for him.

Oh so now we're supposed to get mad at Red bull for dropping him? It's business kids, tanner just does not support Red bulls image anymore. Plain and simple, Red bull attracts adrenaline seeking young kids, who like to watch people do crazy things. Tanner is neither young, and is no longer doing crazy things. No one gets pumped up to drink Red bull by watching a Tanner "recovery from injury" video. I like Tanner as much as the next guy, but business is business, and truth is not no one can be crazy like that for more than a few years anyway, we've seen it happen with almost every athlete. People need to accept the fact that just because a person was once a great influence on the skiing world doesn't mean they are always going to be, the world moves on to bigger and better things. Business is cold and mean, but without a doubt I completely agree with Red bull and their decision. /rant

And also props to Tanner for winning, but still he proved nothing by means of doing crazy influential things in which Red bull likes

I disagree. 'Hey look Tanner must be healing so fast and coming back to dominate the sport because of all the red bull he drinks' seems like a pretty good advertisement for their company...

LALZ are you serious here? Take a look at a Red bull commercial, and keep in mind the type of imagee they are trying to build.

Now this is old Tanner

This is New Tanner

Don't get me wrong, I do like Tanner, and enjoy watching him, but you have to think about a few things. The general public most likely does not take into account what Tanner has been through, and how hard the tricks that he is doing in his "newer" videos actually are. Compared to the crazy stuff (that we all think is stupid) that other people are doing, his newer stuff is uninteresting to people. People like watching crazy things, and Tanner plain and simply is not doing crazy things anymore. Again props to Tanner, and I am definitely not hating on him (as he is one of my favorite skiers, and always will be) but all i am trying to say here is Red bull made a reasonable choice, and by the looks of it Tanner will make it just fine without them.
