I'm sitting in class watching lsm's partly cloudy and I could not stop thinking about how much he reminds me of jossi with his style, and way of dressing. I thought more about it, and I realized that almost all pro skiers have someone who skis just like them. Dane Tudor and Sammy Carlson, Russ henshaw and bobby brown, henrik and bdog... Anyone else notice this/ have any more people like this?

Bobby, Russ, Goepper, are pretty much all the same skier.

LTC has a lot of similarity with at the same time all being so different.

They're all on the same side of the spectrum, having a really unorthodox, wizardly style. This is opposed to afterbang and keeping all body movements really flowy.

I don't agree with some of your examples. Just because Sammy and Dane throw big tricks in the BC doesn't mean they ski alike. Also, Henrik and Phil have totally different styles of skiing, and the tricks they do are completely different as well.

Just because B-dog and Dollo wear 4XL clothing, doesn't mean they're pretty much the same skier. Anyways I'm gonna say Kevin Rolland and David Wise look pretty similar in the pipe with how hard they kill it.

The Real Skifi skiers are so different that we can't tell the difference between them.

Bobby has actually been getting a lot better about it. Russ and Nick are still pretty robotic in and out of competition though.

This being said I wouldn't say their style is similar. They are all comp skiers. Bobby's style when cruising through the park and making edits is pretty good. Nick even got some more style with that spring edit he dropped. Russ is the only true robot in my opinion. Also Russ doesn't pop, that sets him apart from everyone.

I don't really keep up with russ, but Bobby's skiing doesn't seem to have changed all that much in the last few years. Goepper has crazy routine execution, but I don't know if I've ever seen someone with a more creative eye for how to grab tricks.

I think beau wells has picked up a few things off that E-dollo guy. Case in point: under the mountain

Yew, let us all hate on skiers who don't afterbang and don't wear 5XL clothing because that's what makes us the best skiers on the mountain, worrying about other peoples style. Just remember Simon Dumont describes Jon Olsen style as robotic and said it was perfect. So where in the span of four years has "robot" turned from describing someone with immaculate knowledge of their tricks to an insult of their style? Even Russ said himself he would rather "stomp" his trick over afterbang.

I think vinnie is more creative but geopper is up there

I find Ross Imburgia and LJ are sort of similar being able to compete but still make solid stylish edits
