For being able to do everything, Jon Olsson, pretty sure no-one else has medalled in every x games discipline and raced on the world cup.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Good shout, it will be interesting if he makes Sochi. People normally retire from WC then get into X Games/freeriding but he is going in the other direction. However I'll raise you one Daron Rahlves, winner of the Hannenkham, X-Games gold and TGR Alaskan Ski Porn Rock Star.

True, but Rahlves won the skiercross, which is just more racing really, amazing skiier for sure, but not as versatile as Job.

If your counting slopestyle as skiing then I'm including ski balet. I give you Suzy Chaffee, Olympian, three times freestyle word champ and ski balet superstar. Now that's versatility  .

Haha, bet she couldn't do anything close to the modern level of freestyle or racing though!

oooo I met him in Val back in March *name drop*
He was nice. I had no idea who he was 
I'm going to say Glen Plake. I've seen many an insane extreme skiing video, but his was the first I saw, and still the most impressive.
I can still remember the moment in the Blizzard of Ahhhs when he somehow bounced over a crevasse after jumping off a bridge in Chamonix.
Nutter.
Such an iconic video. Yes video! VHS.
Oh and Klammer doing the Hahnenkamm.

Probably not but she is getting on a bit.
Interesting lady.
