Everyone has their favorite riders, but try and be objective and list the riders that you think have the most individual type of style when pulling tricks. Like some riders do every trick in textbook fashion while others do tricks like no one else. The guys I think have their own flair and style are:
Dustin Miller
Doug Parsons
Nate A###s
Drake McElroy
Metzger
What are your picks?

id have to say the top 2 i can think of are Metz and leyba. No one has a riding style like either of them ;)
Id also have to say that dayne kinnaird and daniel hall have very cool/different riding style's.
Down the other end of the scale, i think almost everyone would agree that tommy clowers has the most textbook (plain :D) style

Metz has an awsome style.
Leyba does too.
Jimmy McGuires cool too, real nice guy to hang out with.
Cinqmas has some of the nicest whips out.
Drakes deadbodys are pretty nasty

my two choices are drake mcelroy and twitch
they both have a style of their own and i like them both.
there are so many other riders though that have styles of their own like metz and leyba.

i agree with shaolin about jonsey, he has his own style for sure, especially with his kod's and supermen variations.... but i dont really like it... i think my favorite would be metzger, he just does it so smooth

Definately gonna have to agree w/ Star Fish on this one....Drake and Twitch have the best style out there....I love Drakes McMetz while 'raising the roof' lol...that's definately worth some style points there

How come whenever I say this ANYWHERE but here, I get crap for it?! ;)
I think the top three riders with the coolest and most original style are...
Nate A###s (he hucks his nacs and superman stuff out there like nothing. I love it)
Mike Metzger (look at him!)
Drake McElroy (he's a badass, an innovator, and he looks like nobody else when he rides.)

i think you couldnt mistake doug parsons or ryan leyba for anyone else. leyba has that lazy leg when he throws his tricks(remember in sac when you were teesing him alex? lol) and doug does his tricks so smooth every single time he throws something, but ive been noticing myles and wes have similiar "doug parsons" styles, maybe its cuz all the riding together??? another rider who pops into mind is a friend of mine, julian d'usseau. he rode in sacramento ifma, and his style is like no other too. all his tricks are past the point of extension. check out the sac ifma phots, he the one on the rm with the bike nearly vert, doing a monster shoalin, youll get the picture.

METZGER is soo ###n funny! gotta go with metz on for this one,
i think clowers is very textbook, but i still like him, hes so little, and he rides a huge bike, i find that fascinating haha lol

Not so much for tricks, but the rider with the best outright style would be Cinqmars in my opinion. He just looks fluid whenever he is riding.

flying Hawaiian would be mine and don't bash me for picking this prep but Pastrana really has a flavor to him, i mean he does it on a 125 (mostly) and you got to have mad skills to pull tricks on a 125 hitting the big gaps. The ones with most track time and skills always will have a flare to them period. 'nuff said.;)
