I really don't like anyone's style

Except for a few people. To each there own, but I seriously don't like 95% of styles out there. Like they all dry me out. I follow almost no proskiers on instagram. (Khai Krepela, Noah Albaladejo, Meeks, and Jaron Stadler, pat yourselves on the back). If I could choose anyone's style, I wouldn't make a decision because I don't like any of them all that much. Anyone else feel similarly?

If you don't like a style, make your own.

Find what you like and run with it OP

The way I see it: Style is similar to flavor.

There are good flavors and bad flavors.

There are different flavors among all skiers (which sometimes are good or bad depending on who you are)

OP you just need to grow some tastebuds.

there's a good amount of truth to this. OP, you said that you suck. don't worry about choosing which styles you like the most. the styles you like to watch are dependent not only on what you "like", but on how you relate these other skiers' styles and traits to your own skillset and experience on the mountain. to me, it sounds like you just need to send it harder, which will grow your appreciation for everybody's skiing. stylistic appreciation comes with time and experience. to become a legitimate critic of others' skiing styles you have to have put in that true passion, and experienced personal progression over an extended period of time in order to have a personal knowledge base to relate to others' skiing.

Everyone has there own style. To be honest its another way of expressing ourselves on the slope. If everyone was out, to please one person. We would have the generic comp style. The 95% of styles you don't like is your opinion, which if fine as some people dislike some styles and other's like them. Its what you prefer!

People have told me I have good style, but then I look at videos of myself and I'm convinced they're lying and want to pee in my butt.
