Im confused, if a person is sponsored by a company are they sponsored for all products of that company? Like Candide, he's sponsored by Quicksilver and Rossignol, but aren't Quicksilver and Rossignol the same company?

Quicksilver owns a lot. They own Rossi and DCshoes/snow. and sooo much more. Candide is sponsored by both Rossi and Quicksilver. You can be sponsored by just one though. and i'm sure if you ride for like, Quicksilver you can get some perks or something from the other companys. They could hook you up with reps i'm sure.

Quiksilver owns Rossignol/Dynastar, DC shoes and others. Candide is sponsored by both Rossignol and Quiksilver because Rossignol provides the skis and bindings (Quiksilver doesn't make mens skis) and Quiksilver Eyewear provides the goggles, two different companies owned by Quiksilver coroporation.

You're probably from quiksilver and just trying to put some implicit messages on here.

And yeah... It's like how Jon Olsson is sponsored by oakley for eyewear, but not for clothes. You don't get everything from a company for a sponsorship. It really depends on your contract.
