Getting "sponsored" without being that good?

yea so Ive only skied for like 3 months, so Im def not good enough to make a sponsor-worthy promo. But hopefully a year from now I will have a nice one put together.

So my question is... Is there any way for me to basically work for a ski company and get hooked up with some gear. I'm not looking for a real job, just something that I can do at my home mountain.

I'm a college grad if that matters, but again I'm not looking for a "real job"

on some rare occasions there are some people that are sponsored and not that good. there are a couple guys at my home mtn that are sponsored and they dont compete at all and arent too good. theyre sponsored though because theyre respected by everyone at our home mtn and theyre just doing their own thing and starting new trends here. so i guess as long as if youre unique and stick out in a cool way you have a chance of getting sponsored. of course youll have to be at decent at least too.
