Candide - because he's the best, the raddest and the sickest
Pep (and all of the Nimbus crew) - he's the man
Tudor - because of his versatility and how he excels everywhere

Dumont and Sammy's segments in Push really made me want to free-ski so i'd day they influenced that decision entirely.
I'd have to say Bobby Brown as well. I talked to him for a few minutes 2 Dew tours ago at Mount Snow and it made me realize that skiers like him are no different from us regular folk on a personal level. I could also sense how humbled he was by his success that year (dual gold at X). He's just one of my favorite skiers to because he's always sending it.

Andreas Håtveit, because he is always smiling and having fun and also because he is the one I have looked most up to all my life.
TJ Schiller, because he is always super stoked when he skis.
Simon Dumont, because he has meant a lot to this sport and because I know skiing means a lot to him. He is one them who practice the most. And because he is a very good overall skier who I think got great style wherever he skis, no matter where if it is in backcountry, a park or in the pipe.

There are also a lot of other skiers that has meant much to me and this wasn't a easy choice, but these three is the ones that I think has meant the most to me.
