Just wondering if any ski companies out there have flow teams? If you have never heard of a flow team it pretty much goes the Pro team, Am team, then Flow. Not sure if anyone sponsors like this, can anyone help?

I know that Liberty has a flow team and Line has a huge Mountain Command team. Smaller companies are sometimes more open to small flow team sponsorships.

whenever you are on a "flow team" atleast from what I know and have seen is either being good/knowing a local company rep whos able to get you a couple pairs of skis. some people look at it like a sponsorship I think of them more as product endorsement (ie: young kid sees someone older doing shit in the park first question he wants to ask the kid is if he is sponsored asks then goes home immediately telling his parents he wants those skis next year cause they'll make him good)

Most companies have some sort of a flow team, basically you have to know the regional sales rep, and or a shop owner. Smaller start up companies are the best. They usually have awesome skis and if you are a half decent rider with a good attitude they will hook you up.

Go to events, talk to reps, talk to shop owners and leave a positive impression on everyone, and sponsorship is not a difficult goal.
