Do you want to be pro?

So in my opinion "going pro" isn't just getting 10 sponsors and winning slopestyle at Dew Tour or the XGames. I think that "going pro" is just being a good skier and getting your name in peoples heads, even if it is just for a little while after they watch your edit/film. I mean honestly who of you knew about Magnus Graner until Super Unknown. Probably not a lot but the people watching his edits did, because he's really good. So yeah I think that if you hook up with a production company (even if they aren't as large as Level 1 or PoorBoyz) and shoot some segments, if the film does well and you were good in your parts then you can consider yourself "pro" or maybe "semipro". What do you guys think?

Professional "pro"- (of a person) engaged in a specified activity as one's main paid occupation rather than as a pastime.
