I'd say Edollo.

Kills it on jumps, rails, sick urban game too. Haven't seen him in the pipe tho..

T Hall is honestly still a great all around park guy. From jumps, to rail and urban, and even in the pipe he kills it.

Probabley dollo.

Still one of the only skiers who got the big tricks and can do them with style.

Really don't know why this got downvoted 4 times.... Gus is fucking good at skiing, might not have the hood style but he could do some crazy stunts... Jossi's a legend

If we're talking currently - I don't know how his name hasn't been mentioned yet, the answer is pretty simple.
Jesper Tjader is probably the most inventive freeskier out there and has been for the last 2 or 3 years.
His Unrailistic segments are truly unbelievable and he constantly pushes what's actually possible on skis

i couldnt believe it when i saw his recent sw4 pretzel 2 and other shit. dude is nuts

Right now, I mean A Hall was mentioned and like there was a span of like two months it felt like A Hall was posting something unbelievable almost daily. Especially when he was in Mammoth it was just jaw dropping to see someone one day post perhaps the closest thing to a cork zero, then be one of three to ever do a nose bud trip with a crazy axis, then a switch dub 14 with a warped ass seatbelt grab where he like basically tweaked it. Also in terms of off-takeoff pole taps and blender spins all the way down to like bunch shit on the smallest features possible. So effing versatile he is simply a freak of nature

But there are so many just pushing it hard right now bringing the new wave to like comp level big tricks...Kai Mahler doing the switch dub landing in basically a nose butter to revert? That could best be described as magnus put it "space wave"...Mista mango is on another level...Teal Harle's switch dub 7 was maybe the best jump trick I have ever seen...Colby Stevenson during Kimbosessions....idk park scene is going off

Sad thing is the Jesper is overlooked on NS because he's also a competition skier and people get all butthurt about them.

Fuck that I still stand by my point he's the absolute boss when it comes to rails

Gus Kenworthy

Best tech park skier - Rails, jumps, urban (Rage), big air and pipe

Did you see his last park edit with Oystein, holy tits

E-Dollo, AHall, and Kai Mahler are the best park skiers period. E-Dollo can virtually do anything he wants onto rails and can do any rotation in the air. Double rodeos, mistys, corks, bios, and got triples. AHall has a good Bunch style and is also a good competition skier really pushing the limits of what can be done on skis with good style and staying true to the "underground" roots. Kai Mahler is also dope. His Zermatt edits this year were unbelievable and can throw triple corks to the moon. He also has amazing style and has a lot of one foot variations with nose butters. I have to disagree with Jesper Tjader because he does the spin to win shit and literally does nothing to help out the skiers that are smaller in the community.

Tod Walnuts! The Pretzel Man, and the King of After Bang. If you aren't giving Wallisch the win on this one, you are just lost. I know he hasn't been in the competition seen as of late, but he always slays whenever he drops. The man can land anything smoother than I can spread butter on toast.

Let's be honest here it is really difficult to spread butter smoothly on toast especially if you use real butter and not margarine.

This is actually really true - I'm always impressed at how he can ski in so many different ways so well, even if he is just trollin.

I'm leaning towards Keegan right now. He does tech tricks with style, always has smooth lines and amazing edge control, plus he can do some of pretty sick big jump tricks with style. He might not be out there doing triples, but I don't think that's because he can't...

A lot of the faction crew are insane, AHall, Antti Olila and Daniel Hanka are killing it right now they all have a bag of tricks bigger than santa has a bag of presents on christmas eve. Edollo is still probably at the top for now but he is 7 years older than AHall so I'd say the king might lose his place pretty soon.
