McRae is a super ill skier, I like the dude a lot. But I've always found his style to be incredibly "stock"... 0% originality there.

Gloves look ugly when I'm swaying my hands around in my highly advanced swerve turn.

Also mittens are super warm.

Prob gonna get downvoted but recently magnuses style hasn’t been my favourite. Don’t get me wrong I usually fw Magnus and I def fw the new wave, like lsm is my favourite skier but idk Magnus recently has been a bit too arm wavy n shuffly, also falling off rails early?

He also seems like a bit of a jerk from the slvsh games and that one vars tournament I've seen him in, but I have no clue what hes really like.

Agreed, Magnus' stuff is too out there for me lately. The arm waving is over the top for me. I think Jake Mageau has definitely surpassed him in that style of skiing.

Volkl have loads more stylish skiers... Tom Ritsch, ABM, Tanner Rainville (one of, if not THE most stylish ever), Markus Eder, Jennie-Lee, Emma Dahlstrom... I'm sure there are loads more too.

Rainville has sick style. Ahmet is odd style to me but i can see how people like it. Im old school. i like corey vanular and liam downey style over the style like that of henrik

Yup completely agree...I said this 8 months ago and I'll say it again,

I don't like daffy butters or @Tophaloaf simply because the trick is ridiculously easy (learnt it in about 10 mins) and I find the hype surounding it as a godly trick kinda annoying.

Might just be me but I don't get how he has such a big following for spamming easy as shit tricks like daffy butters or jumping over box and people will call it insane or "revolutionary"

I don't have anything against HIM as a person I'm sure he's probably a cool dude, I just don't get how people ridiculously over hype everything he does. Like look at this:

https://instagram.com/p/BcWMiimFOcW/

All he does are a couple jumps over a few boxes, a few easy butters and a daffy and people are impressed. And yes I know it would make sense for him to milk the shit out of it I just don't find it entertaining or cool like the majority.
