i just ollied my first 9 set yyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeaahhhhh i bailed non stop on it for about 2 minutes straight then i finally went for it and landed it!!! im so exited!!
So you can ollie a 9 in 8 months. As long as you're gonna make a sponser-me tape, might as well show us it too.

look around the web, theres sites like action profile, where you can post your Sponsor vids and shit, and sponsors go there (mostly small companies, which is good), and they look for people.
theres also one called sponsor house i think, its a little larger, but you have to pay to put your profile up. or just look around the internet for new companies looking for rider.... oh and i almost forgot the most obvious one, go to your local shop, they might sponsor you.
if your confident, and you really think your good (not because others have told you) then go for it.

not anothere one, look man, worrying about sponsorship will in the long run end up hurting your skating skills, cause u wont be skating for fun, and for that your "skills" will get worse.

the blue angels flow program, listed on this forum maybe?
Most skate sites have sponsorships, i know the emerica syt has a sponser me section. Just go on skate brands syts and see if they have a sponsor me section.
And by the way dnt u just hate it wen ppl just say look on google. ur asking them if they know any good sites, which you might not find easily on google!

They want to see switch everything into anything. You must know your switch in and out, able to do various flip tricks and grinds/slides down hand rails, rails in general, style x10. Everything = perfect with no dumbthings in the video or mess ups, maybeeee you might be able to be sponsered by emer... no flow maybe by emerica. Stick to smaller companys like fight! or any local brands/shops. You would have a much better chance and that way companys are able to see your stuff through your sponsership.
MMMAYYYBBEE though.
Dont be in such a rush to be sponsered. If your breaking shit left and right, its a phase, it will wear away.

I was reading a James Craig interview a while back and he said "you dont need to go pro, some people have a regular job and just enjoy to skate, you should always just try to have fun skating." This isn't exactly what he said, but it's the jist of it. I know you didn't say anything about going pro, but I would just get a job (if you dont already have one) and make some money for skating.
