the guy whose video segment you watch to pump you up for a ski
or the guy who most inspires you to ski
or maybe for most of you posers, the guy whose style you try and immitate

mine is t-hall anyway...hes a fucking god on skis

Dumont and Sammy Carlson are a close 4th and 5th.


P.S. these are the skiers that get their styles copied most often, and find carbon copies of them via their clothing styles in each and every park.

For me that is so simple... some guys who changed or represented the sport, not just for 2 years , for all his skiing career! guys like:
Mike Douglas , Cr Johnson , T. Hall, J-f Cusson , J-p Auclaire, Jon Olsson, Seth Morrison , Mike Nick

In the future : Charles Gagnier ( he is already I think), Corey Vanular , Tj Schiller , Pep , Casabon , Seth Morrison, Simon Dumont, Josh Bibby,

And The All Time Hall Of Fame : Seth Morrison , It Could Be ridiculous for someone but ; Warren Miller , Yves Lacoches and all the Quebec Air Force,

Seth Morrison Is The Man!

Seth Morrison, Dana Flahr, Hugo Harrison, JT Holmes, Ian McIntosh, Doug Coombs, and Anthony Boronowski.  Probably some others too, but I think that list is sufficient.
