Extreme sports go beyond the normal everyday mundane life. We love that! If you want to get into extreme competitions or extreme sports...be prepared to get hurt, spend a lot of money, and a lot of time perfecting your craft. Many people, everyday, catch a glimps of what an extremist does. And, each day, a new person gets interested in becoming an extreme competitor. If you are one of those people...CONGRATULATIONS! Another thing about being a competitor is that you need sponsors. There are many ways to get sponsors. A good, traditional way of getting a sponsor is to go to ameture competitions. Most of the time, there is a scout there looking for new people to represent their company. Since we're in the new age, we can use the Internet. If you want a specific sponsor, go to their website and e-mail them telling them that you are interested in being sponsored by their company. Explain to them why you want to be sponsored by their company, and hopefully you'll get a response. Also, you can find the official website of your favorite athlete in that sport, and e-mail him/her, ask them how they suggest you get started (they had to get started somewhere), and you may get a respose. Plus, from that you'll also have a good idea of how the people in that business work. |
