your almost there. I think that zero might seal the deal for you, but i think you might need to do some rails. Have any of those on film???

I'm pretty sure one of the lesser-known companies would sponsor you right away, so you can represent their stuff at your local hill. We're talking smaller more "independant" companies like salomon or rossignol, you know, stuff like that. Now, if you want to get in the big leagues and get sponsored by Bolé eyewear or Head, you're gonna need to throw down a bit more. My suggestion would be cartwheel airs or switch lobster grinds. Once you pin those down, victory will be assured. I personally scored a pretty dope sponsorship from a huge chap stick company by pulling a one-handed cunt punch 270 (landing with your skis sideways is sooo redbull). So yeah dude, keep up the good work !

Ah dude there it is. Now just compile all of those shots into a promo, put some dope music in there like iron maiden, ACDC, or Metallica or if that is not your style maybe some 50 cent and send that promo in.

its really hard to tell if you can get sponsored just by a backflip. we need to see rails, jumps , and all sorts of things

I am suprised you aren't already sponsored... That backfilp was huge, and really smooth. You should definitely put some stuff up on sponsorhouse.com, or just talk to some reps... You could be the next mikee!!! Do the US Open and NAO next year, you'll win.

All of you got fuckin fooled. Look at the two videos he posted (Backflip and zero spin)....they have two different authors, not to mention skiers. Also, the guy has 800+ posts on this site and skis at Hood, so do you honestly think that he doesn't know by now that a backflip won't get you sponsored? god...
