Tricks don't factor this, we're just talking pure style in the park. Who looks unique in skiing?

Max Hill. Not a fan of the outerwear, but damn, I could watch him for quite a long time and not get bored.

I gotta say, i think it is max hill. If you saw a silhouette of someone skiing, and you had no way to identify them other than their style, i think max would be the easiest.

or really anyone with an established style, e.g.:

Matt Walker, skis really angry, amazing blunts

Jeff Kiesel, always shiftying stuff and tapping

Andy Parry, kinda squirrelly, but at the same time smooth and innovative

b- dog: so flowy and smooth, hitting everything and anything in the park, finding tranny

max hill: i could watch him butter on the flats for hours, so crazy. and he looks at rails like no one else does.

brogan: normally when you think of flailing arms, you dont think of style, but with brogan...

I would have to say Charles Gagnier is pretty distinctive

Is Pollard not up there anymore? I really like that silhouette idea someone posted, and I'd have to say that without seeing the skis, the gear, just the rider, I could probably identify Pollard, dude is so smooth in the park.

Will Wesson I could probably ID too, just for the crazy crap he can pull off on rails.

Smoothest No Poler?

Candide had a pretty distinct style, as did Mickael. Surprised that not many people are voting for Henrik.

Anyone out of the Superunknowns this year?

I'd say Cedrik or Yan.

Cedrik's style is similar to Max's in that they wear similar clothing, but his actual body movements and the way he maneuvers himself while doing tricks stands out to me.

Yan's style does aswell, but I've never really been able to say why, it just does.

Sammy C is pretty distinct. He just charges around so aggressively, and those pokes are still his own.

Forgot to mention Walker, his style is so snappy and responsive. Here's a good example: https://newschoolers.com/ns/content/viewvideo/id/410353/cat/top/
