Hi, I am wondering how people get sponsored in snowboarding, and what the process is, if any of you sponsor riders or have gotten sponsored, I would appreciate any tips or advice. Also, I'm not sure if I am quite good enough yet, but I can BS/FS 180, BS/FS 360, am working on my BS 540, can boardslide, 360 on boxes, 50/50, nose press, tail press, and am working on backflips and frontflips. I am 16 and have been snowboarding for 6 years but have only started to snowboard the park this year. Thanks for reading.

And dude who cares about getting sponsored. Have fun and push your own limits. That's what it's about. Someone doing a cork or rodeo for the first time is pushing themselves more than pros doing doubles. It's all about breaking your own limits. Just think if you were doing a rodeo 15 years ago you'd be at the world podium. Make your own videos and have fun. It's not about what other people think and not about other people's labels.

Or maybe it is...idk I'm not here to tell you what it is and isn't. It's what you want it to be....so go fuck a monkey if ya want. IDK

I seem to remember all of the press material last year saying 100 foot booter at the bottom, but I honestly have no idea since I wasn't there. BUT, Travis Rice is the man behind it, and he's well known for hitting 100 footers in the BC, so I'm not one to argue.
