Who are the michael jordan's of Snowboarding?

Question

Who are legends or soon to become legends in snowboarding for both men and women?

I guess age doesnt matter too.

Answer 1

Your all forgetting some big names here

Eddie Wall won more jib comps last season than anyone ever. He is just rediculous

Shawn white is like the lebron james of snowboarding.

JP walker is also an icon for snowboarding and really took urban snowboarding to the next level.

Chris Dufficy

My favortie rider   DEVUN WALSH

I would say  the best rider right now is definetly Travis Rice.

Danny Kass

Travis Kennedy  

Each rider is awesome in there own way

Answer 2

nicolas mueller, terge haakonson, shaun white, craig kelly, danny kass, jeremy jones, tara dakides

Answer 3

Guys:

Terje Haakonsen<==numero uno!

Shaun White

Kevin Pearce has been really stepping his game up recently, so...he has a good shot.

JP Walker is pretty sick, but I doubt he'll ever make it much bigger.

Girls:

Tara Dakides

Gretchen Bleiler

Hannah Teter

Kimmy Fasani is the only recently new girl I've seen, but she looks like she has potential.

EDIT: I forgot Craig Kelly. R.I.P.

Answer 4

Shaun White and Hannah Teter for half-pipe snowboarding. Seth Wescott and Lindsay Jacobellis for snowbaord cross(Although she made the blooper on that final sprint, she was young).

Answer 5

terje haakonsen, craig kelly, and jamie anderson are the legends/ innovators

nowadays as far as publicity goes shaun white is on top, but personally i think travis rice is wayyy sicker because he has style and he rides backcountry, his new movie "thats it thats all" is coming out sometime in the late summer and is going to be the sickest movie ever

Answer 6

Guys:

Shaun White

Andreas Wiig

Danny Kass

Girls:

Hannah Teter

Jamie Anderson

Tara Dakides!

Leanne Pelosi

Marie-France Roy

Gretchen Bleiler

Torah Bright

Answer 7

I guess the main guys that stand out as legends are Craig Kelly and Terjie Hakennson. Other than them guys like Peter Line, Jeremy Jones, Kevin Jones, JP, Jussi etc. Have all been great riders but also really influenced the way snowboarding has gone and progressed over the years.

For women id say Tara Dakides is the name that stands out.
