How to get sponsored in snowboarding?

Sponsorship is hard, just ride and send your videos around, don't be afraid to approach reps and brand-people. The worst that can happen is they will turn you down. But, as someone else said on here, you really shouldn't ride to get sponsored...I think a lot of people get pretty bummed when they see kids riding only to get sponsored. That's not what snowboarding is about. It's about having fun and enjoying what you do. Sponsorship may be the result of that, but it shouldn't really be your main goal.

Dude, nowhere in here have you said what kind of tricks you can land.

dont ride just for sponsors and that stuff.. ride because it's what you love to do. i mean yeah its awesome to have sponsors and getting cool swag. I wouldnt push a sponsor to like you, if your as good as you say you are, eventually they will find you.

Email the local sponsor with your resume (basically just contest results) and have a little video to show how good you are. Also, the filming workshop is only gonna help your filming skills not your riding, so unless you want to be a filmer I wouldn't recommend it. And their 2 hour filming edit that they do is gonna be really hard to land all your best tricks within 2 hours, so I would say that it's a waste of money. Have your friends film you all season and make an edit with all the best footage.

approacing them in person is probably the way to go but im not sure about just appearing, maybe call and ask about their sponsorship policies? sounds like you've done your research and are pretty dedicated, Good Luck!
