Mate,
You need to first be able to (too) spell or at least show some literacy.

Shops/Companies need to be well represented both online and at the beach as a SPONSORED rider.

You are after all representing the BRAND.

Start by winning some comps, becoming known in the kiting world by being an active member in your local kitesurfing association and get a job in a kite store.

Yes.

I didnt mean it in a harsh way. Being friendly and approachable is more important then being a gun rider. Like kitecrazzy, isnt the hottest shiz out their but he is actually quite alright in real life.

the key to getting sponsored is crashing. utimatley you need to crash all of your tricks except 1 which should also be lame, then just maybe you will be sponsored.
