Friend of mine did that shit got sponsored within a few weeks. The more you know people the easier it is to get hooked up. Start findin reps to talk to.

I'd get to know some reps and then give them the video...
A lot of the ski companies that you are probably considering get TONS of 'sponsor me please' tapes and they'll probably skip over your name unless they recognize it

if your gonna do it, make sure your segment is fucking insane. Make sure every shot is a the perfect angle, and you stomp the shit out of everything. If you dont think your segment is that good, make a new one. Keep at it until you have a super sick segment with good flow, professional style editing, and good quality footage. That old VHS camera your mom got in 95 isnt going to cut it.
good luck!

What kind of questions are those...
Obviously it will work if the conditions are right.
If you ski somewhere where you don't HAVE the opportunity to meet reps, photographers, and be 'noticed' or 'found', then you have little other choice.
however, if you ski Whistler, they'll be expecting for you to get noticed.
7springs is a real mountain, try getting hooked up with a local shop that will watch you or something. from there, through the shop, you can meet company reps. choose a shop that you WANT to represent, possibly with the brands of the reps you want to meet.
one thing can lead to another.

I liked how he asked 'what kind of camera do you have'.
cause, we all know, unless you have a sweet camera, there is no way you'll get sponsored for skiing..

If your camera sucks and you can't get a friend who can film properly,your video won't have much to say for itself.

today me and my friends were skiing at ski brule wi, some instructor who was watching us with a bunch of k2 crap came up to us and told us we should give him some tapes of us skiing, because he said he could easily get us sponsored. and we wernt throwing anything to huge underflips and corked spins and thats about it. so it seems its much easier to sponsored than i thought.
