I really hope Chris and Jossi don't read this, haha.... For the future pros out there: if you really want to make money in the ski industry, pick up a sponsor outside of the ski industry, such as Monster, Red Bull, Target, Sony, Verizon, etc.  In the grand scheme of things, even the largest ski brands are small potatoes and thus don't pay anywhere remotely near to what these "real" companies can afford.
