No explanation needed.
 
kiesel, camsnyder, khaikrepela, samhurst. these kids have fun and that is what influences me the most
 
CRJohnson, he's my main hero, the way he pulled trough and came back as an enlighted person, that inspires me more then anything.

Tanner Hall, his love for the sport is incredible, and I can totally relate to that, also Like a Lion is the most meaningfull movie out there for me.

Phil Casabon, He's the real deal, the way he ski's thats inspiring.
 
Chris Benchetler - Love that style, gets the sickest shots, SO SMOOTH.
Pep Fujas - He also has a great style. and he can shred ANY type of terrain in so many different ways. super creative and inventive.
LJ Strenio - Sickest style in the park, and he's really progressing in the bc as well. Also, best attitude of any skier.
 
Dale Talkington

Andy Perry/Will Wesson/ Traveling Circus crew (skiing is so origional)

4bi9- first freeskiing videos I watched back in the day, really got me stoked on skiing

Hit the go button on my ipod and posted by accident... Henrik- Because he has the sickest style and Simon Dumont just because he was my favourite when I was 10.
 
Dave Crichton - Very ahead of his time. Shame he had to give it up.

Tanner Hall - Tenacious like no other imo, always very inspiring.

Chris Turpin - Best skier in his age group.

Jon Olsson as a strong 4th!
 
He's still skiing. Comes into our local shop every now and then. I'm pretty sure he's working at momentum this summer too.
 
CR Johnson, the way he lived his life and taught everyone to follow in his footsteps is incredible.

Henrik Harlaut, because of his smooth style of course and the way he is stoked on himself and everyone else in the game even more so. You never see a frown on that kid's face unless he's giving you one of those gangster scowls.

Nick Martini, because of how he loves skiing and filming as much as I do. Definitely someone I would like to meet.
 
But some of the others mentioned are up there. Candide's films are absurdly good. Pep rips shit to pieces. Traveling Circus is hilarious and really keeps it fresh and light. And the kids from the Nipwitz edits are really changing the urban game in my eyes, that kind of creativity is where skiing is headed (other than aerials ofc).
 
Sammy Carlson-just fun to watch/emulate

CR Johnson-so inspirational on his views of life and how lucky we really are

Tanner Hall-coming back from so many obstacles

These were/are all very inspiring plus they are all sick skiers. Other people are sick skiers but wouldnt be inspiring or a role model for me except for sammy.
 
frank raymond, for his no lip urban craziness.

steve stepp, he never throws down hard, but brings mad flava to everthing.

josh bibby, i loved his freeskier video interview, and he's got that combo of being a super goon, but killin it in the BC at the same time.

 
Sweet, I believe I read on the forum here a while back that he had to stop skiing due to illness. But great to hear that he still skis. Thanks
 
Cr because of the way he lived his life

Nick Martini because i grew up riding with him even though hes way older than me
