Best skiier from your state

well know sometimes New England skiiers dont get enough recognition, i guess alot of it has to do with a lot of them moving out West to go pro... but it could be interesting to get some thoughts on who the best skiiers are currently from each state in New England, in each discipline of skiing..

so who's the best skiier from your New England state (ME, NH, VT, MA, RI, CT) in each of these disicplines?? (doesnt matter if they're out West now, just as long as they grew up skiing in new england)

this could be interesting i guess..

^ Obviously the thread creator cares, or he wouldn't have created the thread. If you don't care then don't respond. It's not a tough concept.

As for the question, I honestly don't know enough good park kids/racers out of CT to even give you a valid response.

Hey, I'm from RI.  One of the few.  Doug Combs was from MA, and look how far he went.

true statement i know there hasn't been a kid mentioned from RI on here yet but im from tiverton, rhode island and the best kid I've skied with from my state is paul sliker who apprently is doin big mountain comps now and he skis at mad riv... not really sure tho ive been at school in illinois the past couple years so there could be better kids coming up.

and yea to the other post dan marion is sick and ive heard he goes to uri but hes from Maine so i guess that doesnt count as RI

i know there are plenty of kids who are sick skiers from RI they just dont get a lotta recognition so i wouldnt say RI doesnt have a lotta pro skiers. but maybe im just RI bias
