Riddle, Schiller, Vanular, Bushfield

That takes care of pipe, slope, rails, and crazy backcountry antics,

Canada all the way

I'd say Scand. They're only weak spots would be pipe and big mountain drops (with the exception maybe of Jon Larsson, but I've only seen a few clips of him). But for any type of jumps or rails, Jon, PK and Andreas absolutely kill it.

And close on their heels would be Canada.

Scandinavia isn't weak in pipe with Jon and Hatveit... Jon should have many a gold medal already. I don't know, did he give up on pipe because no one would give him any credit?

Scand: Park: Hatveit, Jon, Pk, Jacob, Karlstrom
Big Mtn: J.Larsson, Kaj Zachrisson, Sverre Lillequist

France: Park: Candide, Favre, K.Rolland, Loic c-p
Big Mtn: Manu Gaidet, Guerlain Chicherit, Adrian Coirier, JRegnier tough to argue with that lineup

Canada: Park: schiller, vanular, gagnier, bibby
Big Mtn: Ant B, Rory B, Dana Flahr, Jp

Usa: Park: Tanner, Dumont, Sammy C, P Olenick
Big Mtn: Seth, Sage, Eric Hjor, Abma
yeah its would be usa i think.
that would be such a fun comp, like a world cup of skiing.

you forgot the british team.......

I reckon the scandis would prob have it, big mountain maybe a problem for that, but in the park they would shred

Hatveit is good, but it would come down to Simon and Tanner regardless. I think Jon gave up pipe after he got his tenth bronze in it. Not to knock any of the amazing stuff he's doing in big air and slopestyle, but I miss his huge laid out flairs that covered a good 30 feet of deck going down the pipe.

prob fair to say that the canadians are better freeriders, americans are better pipe skiers and the scandis are better in the park.

Scandies have great big mountain rippers. Have you ever heard of the Swedish Posse? Kaj Zackrisson, Sverre Liliequist, Jon Örarbäck, Andreas Håtveit, Magnus Tveitå etc. It depends what you mean by big mountain. Big mountain that focusses on mini-golf lines and newschool tricks or ripping huge lines at speed on hairy terrain.

Shut up! i don't know why people always hate on Wilson. Just cos he tries the triple back and the double cork 10 they think that he cannot land shit. What do you mean "but not sure i'd put him up there skills wise"??????


It cos of his push part. Just because matchstick just got him dong crazy stuff does not mean the kid does not have skills. Just look at the Hitlist and Yearbook and you can see that he's crazy talented. Jesus!
