i dont remember what the thread was called but there was a really good one a few weeks ago asking a similar question and a few pros responded as to how their (and most) sponsorships work.  if someone can find it that will prob answer your question pretty well.

No i was not and i was just curious to see because its not something that i think alot of people know. However if you did go into the industry im sure you would want all your dedication and fun to pay off kinda even though the main thing is to be having fun

I'm thinking of applying to be a professional skier after I leave school.

Anyone know where I can get an application form from, and who I send it into?

Also, are internships important in getting a job as a professional skier?


plus kay for any help
