I ride with a bunch of kids upstate and one of my good friends brother is so sick. Hes only 10 years old and hes doing cork 5's over like 40 foot jumps. Hes close to doing switch fives also. does anyone think we can get this kid sponsered? Feedback and tips would be nice

well try, theres no harm in sending in tapes but i think he might be too young, cause like companys want people that will help them sell their products./

a lot of companies today are lookin for that young face though. they want a cute little kid throwin rodeo 5's and pullin it off with style. cuz you're always more impressed if a kid whose 10 is pullin some crazy shit that 19 year olds can't do

Dude Billy's Decent but I think sponsorship is alittle far off. He definently will have a chance in a year or two (Or after this years windells sesh). But now i don't think many people would wanna flow him.

Billy is so good, he makes me feel pathetic sometimes, but it is nice to know that I helped him start skiing. He only started late December of 2005 too so he is barley even started. Chuckie is working on a 'Sponsor me' video for Billy so you can all expect something soon. If you want to see some of his skiing go to Cbranciforte's profile vids.

yea it would be really easy for him. It just sucks how sponsers are looking for the youngest and dont care about the older ones.

my god i've seen about 10 young kid hype threads this week.  Make an edit and post it in videos. Let their skiing talk for them. No hate and i'm sure all of the kids throw down but this trend of claiming for your crew in the forums is bogus. Or maybe im just a hater.

I remember when billy first got his first twin tips last winter. Chuckie kept on telling me in school that, "He was gettin his brother some Chronic."

if you have to post on ns to ask about gettin a kid sponsored then you probably need to focus first on gettin more connections to the ski industry that would help a lot. the biggest thing that would seperate him from all the other little kids would be if he could put some serious style in his jumps cuz it seems like every hill these days has a kid that can huck crazy shit but it looks terrible. like everyone else said, make a video.

How does does he ski down the hill? Oh wait, probably hasn't even touched a diamond. Horrible way to get introduced to skiing. I'd rather hear a 10 year old dominating moguls or ripping powder than doing cork 5s.

Are you fucking kidding me? Billy can keep up with everyone that he skis with, in the trees, the bumps, down any trail. You have to understand that we only have a park maybe 1/3 of the year.
