I think you need something that sounds good within this particular sentence, i.e. TOMORROW's ... (or: the XX of tomorrow/the future)
I think Alan's and Claire's suggestions are perfectly fine, but here are some alternatives:
- ski stars/talents
- piste pros
- masters of the piste
- Winter Olypmians
And, if applicable:
- downhill demons
- the Franz Klammers of the future
In fact, if the context is clear, you could leave out "ski".
