Who's the most OG skier going to the Olympics?

I've been following freeskiing for over 10 years, and I'm a grumpy old man who doesn't like it that so many of the athletes going to the first Olympics are young kids whose names I don't recognize. It would have been really great to see some of the founders and legends of freeski competition get to share in the glory. I'm talking about Simon, Tanner, Sarah, Candide, etc. (and Wallisch too. can't believe that happened.)
So who among the Olympians has been around the block and played the biggest role in getting the sport where it is today? Off the top of my head I think it might be Kaya Turski and/or Andreas Hatveit.
