How to get sponsored at snowboarding?
-
I don't actually want to get sponsored but I'm curious. What kind of stuff do you need to be able to do? How old or young are the sponsored riders?

Answer:
There are various ways to get sponsored, here's just some of the ways you can go about it; make a sponsorship video about your riding ability, and mail it to your favourite shops/companies you would like to represent. enter into snowboarding contests, get noticed! talk to people in the industry, get to know people on the inside. But the big thing is, you gotta learn how to sell yourself.

Get really good, and get to know people in the industry. Reps and local shops. Ride with them. When you get good enough and you keep yourself connected, you'll be able to figure it out. Competition is another route to go. If you want to know how good you should be watch some snowboard videos, or video footage for competitions. That's how good you should be. If you are just looking for some free crap, you don't need to be as good, but you still need to be really good. Girls don't have to be half as good as the guys. Right now there is a huge gap in the levels of riding. What you have to do to be hot sh*t as a girl wouldn't even get you sponsored as a guy. Sponsored dudes are going much bigger then 45 - 55 feet. A chick should be able to hit 40' tabletops. Thats a pretty normal size for parks at the major resorts, not considered big by any means.
