Hill for raising the level and winning on lines no one else can see (or they see them but they only work for sam??)
Gee for being a all-around bad ass, even on the 20"
Fabian for dedication and work ethic (anyone else read the Barel update on the main page? Sick)
Kovarik is still the man, 14 second win at Fort Bill a few years back.
Steve Peat for being consistant for so damn long. Worst style in the game though, sorry.
Matti Lehikoinen for the future. Its been super cool to watch him get up to speed over the years.
When talking about "the best" it has to be Nico. He was consistent and brought the sport up to a whole new level. He was basically a winning machine that pushed everyone else and the technology to new limits. No one has been as professional as he was (Maybe Greg M but that is Honda's doing) and as detailed in preperation and setup.
Don't forget Anne-Caro, domination!

Anyone from Austrailia- Kovarik, Hill, Rennie and the kiwi Blenkinsop. Peaty and Nico get lifetime acheivement awards. But Tomac and Palmer derserve a prop too.

Fabien Barel, Steve Peat, Sam Hill and Cedric are my favorites. If you have seen NWD8 you will see how amazing Gracia and Barel ride. Such sick riders

I like the Peaty style but I think that Sam Hill is better
