Gagnier for sure
BIbby

maybe Benchetler and Mahre are underrated, i dont hear people talking much about them unless it's to rag on IDEA.

I dont think Riddle is underrated.  he had a nice bio in freeskier last season and grabbed a lot of sponsors after the ski tour and people are still talking about him.

enak gavaggio has a fucking sethtacular seg in enjoy...70ft AK backies and lincs

ahmet is loved here, but is so rediuclously underrated still.  he's just on another level than anyone else in the game in terms of rails.

YOU STOLE MY QUESTION!

i'd say... cedric tf, jossi wells (stil up and coming), gagnier (always in & out of public eye), j-bib, possibly harlaut, a few euro riders wwho are never heard of/seen by NA crowd.

that crazy guy doing the corks 10 on cliff is pretty much amazing.

Charles is underrated but he's been killing the rial scene so hard that it should change a bit next year.

Word. Ced and Ahmet Dadali too. Guys like Wiley Miller and Mike Hornbeck are sick but they're relatively new so I think they'll get more spotlight as the years go on.

I wouldn't say Seth is underrated at all, he's been at the top of the big mountain scene for a while, big mountain riding just isn't appreciated on NS. As far as park riding goes I'd say Clarke because I really like his style, and Ahmet just because he straight kills it on rails. As far as big mountain riding, I'd say Sage isn't appreciated nearly as much as he should be. He brings such a fresh style to the steeps that hasn't been matched by any other riders in my opinion.
