I used to think about this a lot on the chairlift. If you could take attributes from all the pro skiers and put them together into one person what would it be like?  Heres my example, keep in mind I don't know that many skiers...
 
Air:                   Simon Dumont
Switch:            Andreas Hatveit
Speed:             Bode Miller
Halfpipe:          Tanner Hall
Big Mountain:   Sage Cattabriga-Alosa
Rails:                Ahmet Dadali?
Spinning:         TJ Schiller/ Hatveit?
Grabs:             Schiller?
 

Whats your guys' opinion? Try to add some new categories, like butters or something...

Ahmet Dadali
I had never heard of him so looked him up - pretty good! I reckon Wallisch is the best for rails/jibbing though. I'd probably have Candide for big air, spins - gagnier, grabs - Colby James West, BC - Eric Hojelfffssoonn (you know who I mean). Can't be arsed to think of any others.
