It’s not often you get the words “smoking weed” and “getting healthy” in the same sentence. But Tanner Hall – legendary freeskier and regular joint smoker – claims it is the key to his success.
“Marijuana was a platform for skiing [in the 60s and 70s],” says Hall. “Smoking weed has helped me so much.”
Hall started smoking pot aged 9 or 10. When he started training for the halfpipe World Championships in Finland, he stopped smoking weed altogether.
