if you need sponsors for currency reasons, your going to have to be rediculously good. Most low level pros, and semi pros work their ass off and get paid almost nothing, and its still hard to get to that part into the industry. If you can't find a sponsor at all, its going to be alot harder to get a sponsor that will pay you money, and money thats worth something. Most skiers on AM teams get paid nothing, unless they win a comp or have a movie segment, and that is if they have a contract with the company. If your looking for sponsors for money, then thats rediuculous. Skiings about fun, and skiers accept sponsors because they want to continue skiing but can't afford having no day job.
