Favorite Non-Skiing Athlete

[FreeskiThe603]

So since we are all skiers here im assuming that most, if not all, of our favorite athletes are skiers. Thought it would be interesting to find out people's favorite non-skiing athletes.

Me personally would have to go with Torstein. Alright i get it, snowboarders suck, but i got mad respect for him. First guy to land a triple cork in a comp, cant get enough of those games of "In Your Face" on youtube, and an overall good guy with a good sense of humor

Alright so whats your favorite non-skiing athlete? Any sport...

probably one of my favorite overall athletes is a snowboarder named Justin Norman, some of you probably know him from Stept.

Probably Rory Mcilroy or Eric Koston.

Just sweet doods and Koston posts funny Instagrams and shizz

You know Oscar Pistorius was really inspiring during the Olympics.

But Justin Morneau is my favorite non-skiing athlete

[J-C]

david gonzalez cause he has ball of steel or beagle

 

[andybob]

Travis Pastrana.

Different kinda athlete but always respected him. I've watched his documentary 199 Lives a couple times. I think everyone can learn something from his level of determination to his simple outlook on life.
