i recently bought propaganda, and after seeing it
i decided i think that jon olsson is the master of
the tailgrab, so it made me think to ask this question, who do you think is the master of a trick? it can be any skier, and any trick.

I also noticed Boyd in Propaganda. I think he has mastered swith rodeo 5's. He had suck an amazing tweak on them, and made it look so easy.

I think Tanner has mastered the Switch rodeo(720 or 900?) because it's all he does

I would have to say that Mike Nick is the king of LiuKangs, he just does them pretty damn well.

JF is king of flatspins, CR bio's, and with the switch rodeos I wouldn't have tanner be the leader, many people are doing them damn well right now as well as him.

Morrison - Lincoln Loops
Boyd - Switch rodeo 5s

Funny how massive corporations and media giants like NBC refuse to support new skiing events like big air and big mountian, yet they use the latter's image to enhance their own. Actually, not so funny. Suck it, NBC.

how you can think belans lius are better than mike nicks? he does them with every trick. He actually said he wont do mutes whiuch i think is a little odd cos if you think theyre over used youre only gonna over use the liu kang and whats the point of the not ever doing the classiest grab, imagine a snowboarder never doiing methods

ahhhh how can anyone think mike nicks lui kangs look good?! he does a daffy. he brings his legs completely apart from each other and deos a daffy! a good lui kang in my opinion, is when they bring there legs up together and then kick one out. not do a daffy.

i'm all about the 540 tails....i love that trick...feels so smooth.

I haven't seen any of the new stuff, but i like the kick that morrison does in his lincolns. Candide is suuuuper smooth in everything. Aside from that...i don't really pay enough attention to what other people are doing..

You guys are talking about just striaght up liu kangs, Mike Nick adds his own style to them thats why I like them the best. I used to hate them but when you see him kick one of his legs practically over his head in a rodeo 5 repeatedly you change your opinion.....usually. Its all different from person to person anyways.

i think that anthony boronowski (sp?) is the co-master of handrails along with steele spence...i mean any guy that can knock out his two front teeth and then go back and do the same rail perfectly is pretty good

I heard that he did not lost his teeth on a rail....

anyway, Larose, Vinni and Philou are damn good on rails.
Larose can grind almost anything, Philou can do anything at anytime out of them and Vinni can do anything with them.

I like both Mike Nick's and Belanger's Liu Kangs. Both are stylie, Nick's is hard to do and looks cool when he sticks it into a rodeo or anythign off axis. But I have to agree that Belanger is the master. Even though he's in High Society for like two seconds, he floats this one LiuKang 180 right across this table at superpark that just looks amazing. He cuts across the jump and grabs until the camera looses sight of him.

Wow, mega bump! Keeping in the retro spirit of things:

Chrichton is the master of flat fives in the pipe, Candide is the master of the pole plant take off to tail grab and still is (no hate, he is a god), and Brad Holmes is the master of rappers!
