Montana’s Tanner Hall Invited to Elite Alaska Ski Showdown

Montana is still waiting for a good ski season, but that isn’t stopping us from dreaming about epic powder days. It’s also not stopping professional skiers from finding exciting places to ski and compete.  

Fans of Montana skier Konnor Ralph cheered him on with early-morning watch parties in his hometown of Helena as he competed in the Men’s Freeski Slopestyle Finals, placing 9th. Ralph is scheduled to compete in the Men’s Freestyle Skiing Big Air Competition with qualifying runs February 15.

The competition is going to be intense and is described as a “head-to-head freeski showdown. Set deep in the backcountry in Alaska. Eight men and four women will compete across a weather window, pushing boundaries with massive lines, creative tricks, and big mountain style. Judged on creativity, risk, execution, difficulty, and flow. The event celebrates skiers who read the terrain as much as ride it.”
