Oh come on, Shannon was doing it all too. He might not have had the technical prowess as Skogen, but the guy ripped it in park, pipe and BC, and was one of the best all around skiers at the time. I idolized those huge japan's he could do, and he was the first and still only person I know who did a japan to tweaked mute in a halfpipe.
Plus, he was missing a finger.
