Tanner Hall (born October 26, 1983), of Kalispell, Montana is a freeskier.[1]

Chris Hall's brother. In 2002 Tanner Hall co-founded the freeride ski company Armada Skis with skier JP Auclair and photographer Chris O'Connell. Hall is also part owner of the snowcat ski hill Retallack near Nelson, BC, Canada,[2] along with skier Seth Morrison.
In March 2005 while attempting a switch 900 over the legendary Chad's Gap in Wasatch backcountry, Utah, he pulled up short, hit the knuckle and then ragdolled down the landing, breaking both ankles. His injuries put him out for the rest of the season but returned in 2006 to win gold at both the US Freeskiing Open and the Winter X-Games.
After overshooting a jump at Stevens Pass, in May 2009, in Washington, he has been on hiatus for just over a year. He suffered from tibial plateau fractures and ACL tears in both knees.[2] Hall got back to training on trampolines during summer 2010.
His attempt at a fourth gold in slopestyle was upset by Charles Gagnier and in 2009 a fourth straight superpipe gold was snatched from him by Xavier Bertoni.[3]
Hall embraces the Rasta culture and supports the marijuana lifestyle.[4] His DaKine line is called THC, which stand for the "Tanner Hall Collection" but is a play on the abbreviation for tetrahydrocannabinol, the psychoactive substance in cannabis.
Hall is the co-founder of Inspired Media Concepts, a film and record company that focuses on rasta music and producing ski movies and webisodes.
