Well, last year it was probably searchbar just because he is so good at rails and jibs, but this year I am gonna go with forum search just because he got way better since last year and is very well rounded

He's the best park skier in the world. He has an unmatched style and trick bag, and deserves the accolade.

In terms of freestyle Candide is by far the best. Winning the Freeride WT this year then all he has done for the newschool movement trumps all imo.

If were talking freestyle right now i would say Jossi is on top because of his ridiculous ability to slay pipe and slope and big air. Not many out there that place in all three very regularly.
If we step out of park skiing i would say Candide

jossi isnt the best in any specific category but the fact that he can absolutely slay in the pipe and in slope is dope

Ahmet is really sick. But Ian Compton has stolen my heart. Top three are

1. Ian Compton
2. Phil Casabon
3. Dale Talkington

With a close second TJ

in my opinion candide is the best skier alive right now, he has a gold medals from x games and he won the overall freeskiing world tour as well as putting out banger edits lilke cadide kamera

Karma: It's a big deal.


Tom, LJ, Jossi, are probably the most technical. But for steeze I would have to go with Hornbeck, Casabon, and tom. This is current of course.

although he is great and one of my favorite skiers ever, i really don't think anyone in this thread can realistically compete against candide.

candide is a legend.

this. What's with all the hate on tom? he is the best, therefore many people will like him. yes, he is very popular, but he didn't do anything wrong the last time I checked... (oh wait, joss..... Whatever.)

Since you didn't specify a category, I'm going to have to assume you mean all-around. In which case there is a pretty good thread already on the topic from this winter I think.

But my votes for all around pros would be:

Tanner
Candide
Pep
Abma
Dane Tudor
Sammy (after his Re:session seggy)


As for hardest working, being able to do whatever they try for, I'd give special mention to Andreas, Dumont and Tom.

CANDIDE

TANNER

PEP

TIM D.

there are no park skiers who do what these guys do in the mountains, yet they hold their own on jumps, rails and in the pipe. These 4 are the best in my book. Just an opinion though.
