Yobeat’s Top 10 Snowboarders of All Time
We here are Yobeat are sort of snowboard nerds (in case you weren’t sure.) We all really live for this shit. And accordingly, our ears perked right up when we heard the soothing voice of Ed from Buoloco asking TRice who his top 10 boarders are. Now the news section on this site is I feel, an unappreciated gem, and it’s frequented almost exclusively by old people such as myself (read: 30+) so the lists it has spawned reflect that. However, I wanted to bring it to the greater Yobeat population with this here feature, because it’s a heavy question and it’s very interesting to see all the different answers. Since we all know you care so much about our opinion, here are the staff of Yobeat’s picks:
Todd Richards. Circa 2000
Brooke
Peter Line
Jamie Lynn
Travis Rice
Gigi Ruf
JP Walker
Terje
David Benedek

Ok, go. Or check out other people’s lists here.
Also, we should take more promo shots.
ANY trick is a legit trick you twat(unless it’s tindy or tailfish). Creativity and having fun are the two most important parts of snowboarding and you’re hating on that?! He’s a huge influence to today’s up and coming riders(Rav, Schubert, Jaeger, etc.) and you’re taking the piss out of that…try to look at it objectively and see that snowboarding isn’t just about fucking powder. It’s about what’s available and having fun with it. Besides, I’d put money on you not being able to do even a quarter of the tricks that Stevens can.
…he’s taking a break?
Rav and Jaeger are not that good… I just want to see these rail kids spend a whole season in the backcountry and the backcountry guys spend a season in the streets and then see who is better
obviously you just started snowboarding in the last decade! Scotty W is a legend and put down some of the most legit video parts…he retired soo early on and that is why you dont think he is a top 10er.
its not a contest, bruh
We aren’t that big but we have a lot of fun plus we’ve been slappin taint for the past 4 years simply because sometimes Scott forgets to strap his other foot in

The way I interpret “best snowboard(s) ever” is they have a very high level of board control and influence on the direction of snowboarding. People that have or if they wanted to dominate any specific sub genre of snowboarding.
Terje
Muller
MFM
Gigi
Travis Parker
JP Walker
Shaun White
Craig Kelly
Peter Line
Kevin Jones
Obviously there are your personal favorites but this list isn’t meant for that.
JEFF HOLCE
it took me at least an hour to come up with this list.
Both Stevens and Jed can throw down pretty hard in the backcountry so I have no idea what you’re talking about there fuckboi.
probably the first of many times ben ferguson will make someones list.
you win for putting ben maki first on your list. Yobeat will send you some gloves or some shit for winning. congratulations.
T Rice
Nico Mueller
Travis Parker
JP Walker
Jed Anderson
Terje
Peter Line
Shawn Palmer
Xavier
Jamie Lynn
I usually drink alcohol, and when i do, I prefer four loko
Maybe you should have taken a little longer
style is well deserving to be on that list!
I never heard of Shun but there is a guy named Shaun Palmer!
Are you ready to smash some fruit?……..Black Gallagher Bitch!!

I feel like Cardiel should be in there somewhere.
While I fully respect Cardiel in all aspects, come on, he is a legend and all around badass but he’s not one of the top ten snowboarders of all time. Skateboarders? Yes, probably top three. At the time, sure, top ten but his snowboard career was too short to qualify.
