tricks for sponsorship

[caingavinscoots45]

what are the minimum tricks you should know to get a decent sponsor?

it depends what style of riding you have. You could get sponsored for being really tech, or for flowing bowls and getting huge airs.

This, I know a couple BMX pro riders that have about 10 tricks in their bag, but are some of the best park riders in the business.

its mostly about style how hard you ride. everyone would be sponsored if people needed to b able double whip, 360, and bri to get a sponsor

seriously ^ that right there is waht ive got easy.

course i got stalls, and a great idea would be to take a trick, and then alter it. tweak it, whip it, air it, grind it, stall it, spin it, or a combination of any of that.

take something, and make it your own

 

[Justin Vogelsberger]

you need to know how to 540 bri flip flat at least

... And what makes you think that?

Don't worry about it, ride for FUN. Not for sponsors. If you get sponsored along the way, congrats. But don't worry about it. And don't say you need money for parts, because ultra pros are really cheap now ($57).
