Synopsis:

From a rebellious past as a high school dropout to seven ESPN Winter X Games Gold medals, Tanner Hall is the winningest and most controversial skier of the last decade. He has experienced it all, from adversity and self-confidence to tragedy and triumph.

But beyond skiing, action sports stardom, and rock-star clichés; the high-risk, adrenaline life of a sports icon demonstrates the kind of courage that compels the best to continually comeback from life’s toughest blows.
