Gotta go with Guy Cooper. Wasn't his nickname "Airtime"?

Mike Alessi. Saw him jump things at Glen Helen Nationals before he turned pro that had a few of the pros shaking their head.

Have to go with Guy Cooper too. At a local track, he had been brought in for a KTM ride day. He rolled around the track the first time by himself and everyone just watched. This first jump he did was the biggest hit a 80-100 double and he bust a huge inverted whip. It was pretty cool to see.

There's no way you can not say Stewart. The dude jumped things that bikes with more power and people more experienced would never do. The quad in Vegas '03 comes to mind. That thing was insane on any bike, let alone a 125. I think Stewart takes the cake easily here.

I saw Carmichael huck the downhill triple at Binghamton in 2000 on the first practice lap. Nobody else was bothering with it. He missed the track upon landing and got squirrely through some bales much to the crowd's delight. He cleared it no problem the next time around. That was the day before he won his first 250 outdoor title. He had a lot of instances like that.

Stewart maybe, while that quad was impressive, Guy Cooper was jumping stuff like that all the time when no one else was doing it. Cooper changed the way a lot of top riders viewed jumps and various sections.
