BigPurpleSkiSuitI'm not as versed as I once was, however, some names in no particular order:
Alex Hall
Jesper Tjader
Tucker Fitzsimons
Taisei Yamamoto (spins)
Colby Stevenson (see SLVSH cup from a few years back)
Cal Carson
Siver Voll
Andreas Hatveit
I still have to put Henrik on here for his clinic of a SLVSH cup from a few years back too, and just his ski level in general
BallClapperHOT TAKE: Jesper Tjader is probably the most technically solid rail skier ever. He just skis like a robot and his "style" Is precision. Kinda boring to watch.
Farmville420For me, having the deepest bag is what's important, and being good at different types of grinds. Adding spins is hard, but I've never seen jackson karsteter, jesper, or siver broken slide. I also think one footed tech is critical, as well as 5050s. When you start looking at who has spinning tech, wizard tricks, one footed grinds, mean presses, 5050s, grabs while grinding, pretzel combos and proper butters on, and taps both in and out of features, as well as the ability to transfer rails with ease, it's really easy to say Phil Casabon. I think a lot of guys over the years have come close, but to me Phil has such a fucking crazy deep bag that I can't imagine not putting him at number one.
Tucker Fitzsimons

FilipKolesarI was thinking who is in your opinion is the best Rail Skier for me it would be Andreas Håtveit.
LMK.
JemsIt’s not a hot take at all he’s objectively one of the best rail skiers to do it
MJWI remember watching the first Steel City Showdown (in 2020 I think?). Tucker was an amateur and pretty much unknown at the time and came in third place behind Colby and AHall. The event had some other heavy hitters like Siver, so not an easy comp to podium at. It's crazy that just a few years later Tucker is pro and medaling alongside those same guys, but on the Dew Tour.
