Sponsored+Skateboarders

= Skateboard Sponsorships = Being sponsored in skateboarding means that you are good enough to have a company give you products to use and sometimes even having the company pay you. There are different types and levels when it comes to sponsorships.

SHOP: The first level of sponsorship is a shop sponsorship. This is when a skate shop will recognize the talent in a skateboarder and give them products for a discount.

FLOW: This is the next level. Having a flow sponsorship means the skater will receive free products from a company.

AM(ATEUR): Being an am means that you will get more free products and more promotion from the company such as magazine photos and Bigger skate video parts.

PROFESSIONAL: This is the the highest level. This means that a skater will receive a paycheck from the company and they will get a pro model, which is a product with their name on thats made to their specifications. (often times a deck or shoes.)
