^that.

Fingerboarding isn't about being sponsored. And if you're asking if you should or not, no offense, but you're probably a long way from the level where you should be sponsored..

Fingerboard, have fun, enjoy it, progress, and fuck knows what'll happen one day. But just like in skateboarding, not everyone can be sponsored. and it doesn't matter happy

if your good and enjoy it sponsors will ask you dont bug companies to sponsor you. make videos not "sponsor me videos" a good example is daniel lindqvist he just fingerboarded and made videos and some good sponsors came ti him.

This thread made me lul......If you are good enough sponsors will come to you. Making videos or asking a company will get you nowhere. If you are good enough companies will watch you and it is much more gratifying when a company personally asks you to be on their team because they want you to represent them.

the fact that you actually asked if you should get sponsored... gave me the impression that you're not exactly a good fingerboarder or ready to be sponsored yet.

Not that your not good enough yet, but you clearly aren't sure, so if your not sure, no.

He may well be a good fingerboarder... as i said, it only gave me the impression. But i don't judge. May I just could have put it in a nicer way...

im not going to sponsor you.......you may be good, but ive never heard of you, or seen 1 of your vids....

if you was ready to be sponsored, i would know who you are and seen your vids lots.....also you would have got yourself very active getting your vids about all over the online scene......fair enough you might be good? i dunno???
i guess if you was good and ready to be sponsored people would be talking about you.

maybe something to think about??? being sponsored isn't about a 'cool' tag or all about skills....its about repping a company, and if the sponsor feels you could rep that comany well, they would have been in contact with you.

if your interested in getting sponsored you shouldn't be asking if you should be seeking one cause if your active and make good vids that question would already be answered. more importantly the only thread similar to this you should be posting is if there are so many people after you, you don't know who to ride for. Then the question would be: Who Should I Pick? i would really like to see some of your vids if I could.
