I want to know what you think makes the best rider....personaly i think You have to have style that stands out around anyone...Always smooth...and can throw down anywere you are...street/park/dirt Aitken is a perfect example...Goes huge, perfectly smooth, Has a one of a kind style, and straight kills it anywere he is...yea his frames light as fuck and no one realy likes it on here but when your that smooth you dont really need a burly frame...Hawk is another person with crazy style...kids fucken amazing

my fav rider is chase dehart... one of the smoothest tech rider out there... but really the only thing that makes him tech is how he can whip anything ... even up a five set... aitkins awsome two... and roche blows my mind how he can hardway 180 out of anything... i say... lets just go ride

"Style" is exaggerated movements" that are considered good form in any sport. It's not anything extra just highly efficient movements. They make good jump shots, and good golf swings too. I think that being able to do 90 plus percent of you tricks in both directions with "regular or goofy" footing on your pedals is underestimated. However, I've noticed that the judges don't miss much. Every time you dial a trick you can move on, or learn it standing the other way, in the other direction, and or side. I don't know about you guys but I can barely bunny hop a foot when I flip my feet around. So just think about the work involved with one of these pros dialing everything they do, and I mean everything standing both ways and in both directions, and or side...

aaron ross and big tricks don't go together.
the way i look at it i like to see a smooth park rider who thrashes up the streets as well.
i like to see dialed in park riding and huge rails and gaps on street.
two completely different styles of riding but made up into one.
style can't match up to insanity. simple as that.
