Sweden
Henrik Harlaut is unique, to say the least. The dreadlocks-toting, baggy clothes-sporting, Wu-Tang-repping, bird-calling Swede doesn’t look like your average pro athlete. But then again, he doesn’t ski like one either. Evident at the Winter X Big Air in 2013—-arguably the sport`s largest stage—-he gleefully routed the competition, falling zero times, and stomping the first nose butter triple cork the world has seen. And then he did it again in 2014. All while wearing 5XL-sized overalls. And after an injury-related hiatus, he’s returned to the top at the Winter X Games in Oslo, with a new trick, and the same old style.
