So Newschoolers here's how it goes:

You get to pick one guy per category, and those are:
Slopestyle
Big Air
Pipe
Backcountry
Urban

Pick one guy per category, and you can only pick a guy once. For example, you cant pick Henrik for big air and slopestyle. They can also be from anytime, it does not all have to be nowadays.

Let me start this off with my dream team:

Slopestyle: Wally. He fucking slays, no need to say anything more.

Big Air: Henrik. That nose butter triple was history, nobody else has done something like that in history. Therefor, that makes him the best in my eyes.

Pipe: Simon. They guy is one of the best skiers to ever ride pipe. He was not only good, but he also has the record for height out of a quarterpipe.

Backcountry: Candide. The guys a legend. He does it all, but his backcountry game is insane.

Urban: Clayton Vila. Guys slays in the streets. His work in the 86 was killer.


Bonus

Coach: Tanner. That speech to Henrik was the stuff of legends haha.



So Newschoolers, lets here your dream teams.

Here's my "team"

Slope- Wallisch. His sw dub 10's both ways back-to-back is super impressive in my opinion.

Big Air- Vinni Cash. His few tricks in the past x games are enough to solidify him as one of the best when it comes to jumps.

Pipe- Not a big pipe fan, but I'll choose David Wise.

Backcountry- Wiley Miller. My favorite skier out there. From huge and technical tricks (cork 10's, dubs, sw cork 9's off step downs, etc.) to ridiculously clean tricks off cliffs into pow (3's, sw 1's, 7's, sw 5's etc.), and the ability to ski some steep and big lines are why he's one of the best out.

Urban- Toughest choice to me, but I'll go with Clayton Vila.

Best All Around- Parker White. Solid urban game, big bag of tricks, destroys big park jumps and bc booters, and can destroy pillow lines and cliffs as well.

Coach- Easy. TANNER HALL.

You kids got it all wrong! Most of you are just picking the best skiers in those particular disciplines. I'm gonna take a different approach. My dream team would be made up of riders who I would have the most fun riding with in each discipline, and Im gonna mix it up with a little bit of old school and new! So here we go, the best team out there would be...


Slope: Jossi Wells- just seems like an all around fun dude to ride with

Big Air: Jon Olsson- only has one of the most popular big air comps named after him and is a riot

Pipe: Eric Olsson- one of the most iconic pipe skiers you didnt even knew was an iconic pipe skier

Backcountry: Rory Bushfield- needs no explanation... rory slays and is hilarious

Urban: Leigh Powis- hands down the most talented and creative urban skier out there whose style is unmatched

Coach: SHANE MCCONKEY! DUH!
