So my friends and I would like to know more about sponsors. First of , what are some ways to reperesent or support your sponsors more. Like what are some good unique ways to support them. Also if you got a sponsor from like lucky , do you only get to buy and use lucky products... I like custom scooters more. So could you get sponsored by like a scooter store and buy a custom scooter with different brand parts?
Questions about sponsors??

Don't worry about sponsors. Ride to enjoy every push, if you're worthy of sponsorship the companies will come to you. By the time you actually do get on a team all your questions will be answered by experience.

Any real sponsor is gonna give you their parts to ride for free. Free stickers don't count and I haven't ever heard of companies only offering product discounts if you legitimately ride for their team. A lot of companies make it so that you have to ride a particular part of theirs (notably deck) or a few parts, but you don't have to exclusively ride their parts. What do huge companies like mgp do, anyone? Little help? That last question...I guess, maybe. People often rep companies as an opener/ender in their riding vids for advertisement. Definitely a way to advertise.
if you dont want to ride the parts for the company that you ride for. then you are riding for the wrong company. you shouldnt be forced to ride a part. you should want to support the company not just to be sponsored because being a sponsored scooter rider doesnt really mean shit. Very few "Pros" get paid every month and thats how it should be. thats whats fucked about scooter riding. once you get a free part from a company you are pro and that is whack.
