Yes I realize I'm flipping. I can't use these skis for many reasons and I shouldn't have accepted them to start with. I'm positive I will get bashed on hard for this. I am not using this money to but Call of Duty; I'm using it to buy a winch and FD pants. I talked to some people high up in the industry that ran the event where I won these and they said it would be fine if I sell them. I feel awful but on top of it all they are size 177 (i ride 161) and I ride for Line Skis and am not allowed to ride Volkl's.

Without further ado-

I'm honestly not the type of guy who likes to flip. I understand it is low and lame. Somebody on here will say SOMEONE RUINED THE SKIS BY WRITING ALL OVER THEM!!, so before someone does I will offer to acetone the signiture off If someone purchases.
These retail around $675 so I'm trying to get at least $500
Thanks,
Willyg

Your not flipping them at all. Kids on NS like to point fingers at every opertunity when it comes to accusing someone of flipping. If you asked for over retail on them because they were signed then id point fingers also and call you a flipper. Hope you make some cash amd get these sold. BUMP

Sir, I think the issue is people don't think he has signed any contracts.

Anyway, buy up - good deal!

It is all objective.

Besides why should he care what people think about him? If he is sponsored woo hoo, good job pal, I am happy that you receive free stuff. Wish I did when I was your age. Good luck with the sale. Walls are sick .. I had the 09/10 and 08/09's .. fun ski.

I just enjoy poking fun at little kids when they make claims and seeing them throw temper tantrums .. sort of like you?

ha relax bud. just saying I think theres far more deserving candidates in the ski game than OP. no offense not saying your not good just saying...more qualified.

According to your redbull analogy does this mean when the redbull girls pass out redbull to me that i'm sponsored then by redbull?

TTT.

All of his vids are older and bad quality. Will's more than qualified for his sponsorships, and he's only 14. The kid slays and has more ambition and motivation than anyone who's bashing on him. Companies are looking for more than just ability, they need a personality that can represent and sell the brand, and he's doing a damn good of a job doing so.

HAHA, everyone arguing about whether or not he's sponsored is completely pointless...why would he sell a brand new ski for far under retail if he didn't already have a way to get skis. Also, it's not just skiing that get's people sponsors, you all need to understand that, there are ridiculously good skiers out there without sponsors because they have no clue how to market themselves and therefor no company wants them. In order to get sponsored, you need to have a skill and/or quality that a company wants, and if he did sign a "contract" (if you can call Line's sponsorship agreement that) then clearly he has something that Line is looking for, I don't know what it is, but whatever, it doesn't matter. I'm gonna have to say that most likely you're all just a little bit jealous and really just don't understand the game...cause getting a sponsor is kinda like playing a game, and there are several different ways to play it, you gotta find your own path.

Also, not flipping, if you were selling them for over retail, that would be flipping, great deal, good luck, and don't let these guys get to you, just do what you do and have fun.

Yo Willy don't sell them for less than 4. That's a sick ski and it wouldn't be a bad idea to throw it up on eBay. Bump for a baller!

Quality arguement, as well as sale.

The thing that many kids on here do not understand is exactly what was said above.
Being sponsored is not 100% being the sickest skier, and knowing it.
No company wants to an athlete that is a A class Asshole to everyone.
Sure, they want skiers or can open eyes, but also want someone people generally like.
You are a billboard.
And I'm sure Willy here is a great kid!
