resume?-put comp's entered/placed, type of skier, where you ski out of, who you've skied with (pros/ams), tricks!! if you can spin both ways or all four, tricks working on, and throw in a vid too if ya've got one.
a resume is a list of your accomplishments. so be creative. list anything you think it'd be important for them to know (i.e, things that required discipline, show character, athleticism, marketability, etc) and include a vid which demonstrates consistency, style, and variety. reps aren't looking for a kid who's a one-trick wonder.
remember, you gotta show them you're different and creative.

wrong...a lot of people get picked up by their video, their persistance and other people recommending them...it's good to try and get your name out there early on if you are really all about it and are good enough...
