Chile's Zurita looks more like a soulful trail rider than a vert rider, throwing as many stylish straight airs and inverts as he does tricks. Although he does have dialed double whips and flair whips, his peers are more psyched on watching him flow through the halfpipe, blasting as high as he can, typically among the highest in the class. His airs aren't the only thing on the rise, as he posted the best finishes of his career throughout 2010 -- and he says he's going to charge even harder in 2011.
