Benchhittertype 1- the local freeride coach who got like 18 brands in his bio but his clips are all shiftys and 3s. He gets to buy a little gear at wholesale once a year. lives at his parents place on the mountain. Negative money
type 2- the guy you know who is really good but too busy sledding and hitting 45 blinkers a day to film a whole part. Gets free skis and probably a $250 filming budget if he asked his rep for it
type 3- most pro skiiers you see in films. Enough to eat through the winter but still gotta have a pretty solid summer job to keep the lifestyle going. Some of them work desk for their brand as well.
type 4- dudes with their own pro models/endorsements etc. baseline not rockstar money but enough to live off. When you have that type of influence you can start brands or take ownership options as well. Like Candide starting his own ski co, thall cofounding Armada, or Cody Townsend even starting Arcade Belts. That’s definitely where the real money would be at, but no way to know what these guys are pulling.

-eREKTion-It's almost impossible to estimate because they receive money from so many different sources. Look up Stab Magazine's series "How Surfers Get Paid" and see how complex action sport compensation really is... then divide the numbers in half because surfers get paid way more than skiers.
