I am an officer of P.I.S.T, a ski/board club from University of Pittsburgh. Each year we hold a pre-season rail jam on one of the main lawns in November. Check out the edit from last year: http://vimeo.com/79072930. Until this year, it has been a snowboarders only event, but we are trying to change that this season. In order to do so, we need to find a ski sponsor (believe it or not, Rome wont supply prizes for the skier categories). I am not sure if this is the best way to go about this, but I figured it was worth a try. So if you want to help sponsor our rail jam, please PM me and maybe we can work something out.
Thanks much.

See if a local ski shop is up for it. (Willy's, Fox chapel ski and board, peak ski and board.)

The best way to go for those kinda of things is local. I'm not familiar with the area but most local ski/ board shops are stoked about those kinda of things and are more than happy to host/sponsor them.

As said look local. IF you have any shops in the region generally they're good to support with some product.


If you can't pull off too much stuff you can always add cash to the prizes. I've had the same problem with some of my contests the last few years.


Cash and lift tickets can go a long way though if the stuff you have isn't that sick. Good luck though. Hope everything goes well
