I always hear some bad things about being a pro skiers, like:

-most of the pros have to work during summer time and stuff like that

But seriously, what is, for you, the best side about being a pro skier?

having support on what you're trying to chase.

being able to ski as you want without worrying about gear etc and occasionally getting the funds to realize trips or projects in their and your own favor.

getting to know how the industry works , networking with people , just overall the "package" that comes with it as well as the opportunities that present themselves which you would have never gotten the "regular" way is just awesome.

ps: i don't describe myself a pro if we talk like a-hall & co kinda pros

That’s so fire man!
 
I feel like the confidence at being so good at something that you're respected for it would be nice. The travel, gear, and getting to ski a ton is an obviouspositive too
