Who would have the best "Career Edit?"

Windstedt has had a great career, but i don't think his movie parts have been unbelievable, even though he's had legit parts since 2002.

His parts in In Deep, The Way I See It and Attack of La Nina are absolutely unbelievable. He does not have a huge volume of work, but his skiing in those three films is absolutely top tier. He is miles above lots of the guys people are mentioning. How can you say his AK segment in The Way I See It is not unbelievable? He was charging almost as hard as Cody and doing 360's off 50 foot spines in AK. That segment is some of the best skiing I have ever seen.

Here is Windstedt's part from The Way I See It.
 
I would also add Mark Abma to the list, I can't believe no one has mentioned him. Richard Permin does not have a huge body of work, but his footage is insane, he is definitely one of the best skiers on the planet. Kye Peterson is another one who does not have a ton of footage, but what he does have is great. Kye's parts in All.I.Can and Numinous are highest level.

i hear you, man. And Scott Gaffney, MSP's director, has personally said that his session with Cody and Henrik were, to this day, one of the best demonstrations of skiing he's ever witnessed in person. so I can't knock your opinion too hard. but from where i stand, his segments have never revolutionized skiing the way other film parts have, like SethMo, Candide, JP and Shane. Henrik is an incredible skier, and he deserves an all-around-achievement award; but I don't think his film parts have changed the game.

it's awesome. No doubt. Scott Gaffney said it's some of the best skiing he's ever seen in person. maybe i need to give it another look. thanks.
 
Jon Olsson, Pep Fujas, Eric Pollard, Candide Thovex, Tanner Hall, Tom Wallisch, Andreas Hatviet, Mark Abma, Shane McConkey, Seth Morrison, Hugo Harrison. Not sure how no one has said Hugo, Jon or Abma...all are legends who have produced tons of mind blowing segments.

remember the early hatveit before doubles, when he was building BC booters. that was some clean shit.

I would have to throw Dane Tudor into that Mix. Then guy has done it all, Urban, Park-one of the first throwing a switch triple and one of the cleanest to boot. Big mountain, look at the Real ski segments. Dane has stacked some diverse footage in a short period of time
 
If im gona be biased, Casabon will forever be the most mindblowing skier I have ever witnessed every time I watch him ski.

Vila for my earliest influences too. I don't think I idolized anyone more than him when I was younger.

All around has to be Sammy though. Style, overall skill, and versatility would put it at the top of the list for me, even over Candide. I still consider him #2 in the game behind him.

I also heard they are pretty good at skiing
