Style

The way you ski!

I don't think there can be a best style or anyone can have a better style than someone else but you can like someones style more than someone else and have a favourite kind of style

Example: the debate over magnus and the bunch's style
 
When you do something so well that you can put your own style or spin on it. Looks so nice all the people on the lift bust a nut.

When your experience manifests in three dimensional space. Your raw inner character is revealed because you are not employing conscious thought.
 
To me style is very inclusive of the whole self, clothes kinda play a part in it but not the definition. The way you move, adapt to any mishaps in a trick or landing, being able to add your own creative flare. The way your lines flow, consistency with the ability to add surprise when you need to. Confidence: skiing like every trick you throw in your line is your comp safety, but not so confident that you break yourself off throwing something before you're ready.

I don't know how much of the whole "the clothes make the man" applies to the style side of skiing. Maybe not having a gaper gap and jeans on but you catch my drift. It's not so much about the clothes as it is about the impression you leave on others with skill. Tight pants, poles, baggy jackets, goggles over helmet doesn't matter. Style is something you exude from the whole of yourself, not just your clothes.
