Think you've got what it takes? Just pot your videos and others will give you feedback and advice. I'll start it up with a video of myself, I'm partially sponsored by powwow clothing which is sick, wonder if it's worthy of anything bigger. Worddd

P.S. If you have the power to sponsor people your feedback would also be very much appreciated!

Let's see how this thread works out.

This thread will end in a shitshow. I think it's really weird to post your promo in a edit basically saying that you deserve to be sponsored.

I just watched your first edit it was pretty dope especially the opener with the k-fed on that rail.

Here is my season edit, no jumps because I got two head injuries this season so I had to stay away from jumps all season.

Getting sponsored isn't just about how good you are and how sweet your tricks are, it's also about the image you present and being a good person to represent a brand.

how many times has this been discussed? getting sponsored isn't just about how good a skier you are, it also depends on what you will bring to the table for that company. making this thread makes you sound really cocky and stuck up, which isn't a good thing in an athlete

I don't know you but this + that other thread about your crash makes you come out as an arrogant cocky bastard. I was at least expecting you to be really good and mad steezy but all I saw was a skier a bit better than average, and then I didn't see anything cause I got a seizure.

you should put one of those little warnings at the beginning that says like "if you are prone to seizures from constant flashing" or whatever "do not watch this." that wouldve been nice to know.

Wow this thread is retarded.

You want to know how I got sponsored? I was fucking scouted. Edits and tapes didn't help at all. If you really think you're going to get sponsored than quit skiing now. I did it because I had a passion for it and competed because I really loved to be competitive. When I was scouted it was through a competition, I placed third and the man walked up to me and said, "On behalf of our company we would love you and your antlers to be apart of our company." (The antler thing is a long story, but long story short I was registered as moose and was wearing a moose costume as a joke and a dare.)

So making edits and shit won't get y sponsored but doing the thing you love to do because you love it will give you a higher chance at your goal.
