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

BOOM
this is so true. every time i saw him at breck this year i would just stop and watch his run. even skiing grooms on the way to the park he is steezy as fuck and tree tapping shit i didnt even notice. seemed like he never hit features the way they were built to be hit, but would always find some crazy side tranny or something to butter.
only other person i would stop to watch was b-dog

There are a lot of people with really unique style, but I have to say Jossi. I remember watching the Dumont Cup and seeing a skier come down, but I didn't know who it was. Then he hit the wall and I recognized who it was based on how he skied. Other than that there's: Brogan, Sean J, and tons of others

you'll never mix candide up with any other skier, no matter what the trick. Even when he's just making turns you know its him.

yup.



Candide
charles gagnier
lolo


very, very distinctive style. Plus, they had distinctive style when the sport was more contracted without all these little sub-factions

Back to the silhouette idea...

I think I could ID

Pollard
Andy Mahre
Sammy C
Candide
Mickael
Tanner (gorilla steezin)
Lolo
Max Hill
Andy Perry
Will Wesson
Leigh Powis
Matt Walker
Wallisch

and maybe a few others, I'll be honest when I say that I'm not up to date on everything thats going on in freeskiing recently.


Thats fewer than I thought. And a really small percentage of pros and ams. You would think as freeskiing grows bigger that more individual style would propagate... is it? Whats this saying about our sport?

Siv Tviet and Austin Torvinen, love watching their edits. But staying true to the title of the thread, I would say that Edollo/B-dog have the most DISTINCTIVE style.
