Just wondering if anyone has run into any legal issues with sponsoring kids and adults for thier skate teams.
Also, what is the norm for sponsored riders? A shop deck and discounts on gear? Or free stuff all the time?? Entry fees into contests? Or what?? |

We sponsor one rider. Perks include contest entry fees, discounts on certain (high-ticket) items, and some freebies. |

I dont know about legal stuff ...
6 skaters. We give a shop deck a month and 20% off anything else. Also first dibs at any free swag I get.
I also have 1 snowboarder (looking to expand). But not really sure on perks for him.
Sponsored kids are a great way to have mobile advertising. The best advertising in my experience. |
