I have no idea, but i dont think it pays all that much compared to other pro sports, id guess 750 thousand a year in tournament winnings. I dont even wanna guess how much endorsementts pay.

On top of their comp winnings, oakley (who sponsors both Jon and Tanner) is supposed to match that cash prize from getting first place. we still don't make nearly as much as skaters even, not to mention guys like dumbass baseball players.

I know that professional snowboarder has been making about 1.3 million a year. Thats comps and sponsorships. Oakley, Nike, Burton etc. That was what I heard, only a rumour.

I don't know about Tanner and Jon but I remember seeing a segment on Shaun Palmer a few years back. He said he gets $750,000 a year through comps and sponsors.

I am pretty sure that some snowboarders make like 2-3 mil a year.

We just don't have the market to support that, that's why the pros keep telling us all to demand pro model everything.

I know there's prizematching, but it's nowhere the exposure that snowboarders get.

i think that some of the smaller guys might make like 30-50k/year...

I dunno...


Why can't we all just get along?

Good call on the A4, certainly not a $50,000 car. As for how much they make I would be plenty happy making 50 G's a year to ski.

tanner hall made 50-75 thousand for comps alone, then oakley matches what he made, and rossignol pays him 25,000 as long as he is winning, so he made a total of
125,000-175,000 dollars last year

just think of how much golfers make and cry. what they do doesn't even require any physical endurance really, or at least not compared to us skiiers. and the SHITTY golfers can easily make over a mil a year in winnings, hell, they make 6 digits just showing up at a comp.

golfing is fuckin' hard dude.... and last time i checked you don't sweat too much skiing... stand there and let gravity do the work, when you get in the air it's preaty easy to move around.

I disagree completly twoplanker, last time I checked, I didnt see anyone break a leg playing golf. Sure, Golf is mentally tough, but skiing takes mad balls to try new things, a different mental test. You are not risking limp when you play golf. As for gravity doing the work for you, then why isn't everyone pulling corked 900 liu kangs? Because it takes talent. Also, if you just freeski, you don't break a sweat, but everytime I do backcountry, I sweat pretty hard trying to manipulate the terrain. Also, backcountry skiing takes mad concentration on where you are doing and quick thinking to deal with situations as they arise.

skunkjib - you that dumb? ya, no shit it takes talent to do a corked 900, but you saying that golf doesn't take talent? than why the hell arn't you a pro golfer? golfing is a fucking hard sport, and golfers have mad talent. the risk isn't there, but golf isn't an alternative (or extreme as some would say) sport now is it? baseball players make a ton of money, when was the last time a baseball player risked his life?

every sport takes amazing talent to be a pro at. don't be so ignorant.

if you just cruise the groomer bunny hill all day, skiing doesn't take much physical talent but if you do anything more than that, it takes incredible leg strength and endurance to go a whole day, dropping cliffs, skiing pow, ripping moguls etc.

ya, and 48 964 Americans required emergency-room treatment in 1998 for injuries caused by their toilets... what's your point? there's 'risks' in ever sport (syncro swimmers could dround anytime, golf players could be hit by people driving cars around the fairway, etc...)

Pros contracts usually pay them a base line...top pros are in the 100grand range. Thats for skis...if you have a pro model you also get a percentage of the skis sold. Figure guys on line are probably being paid less than guys on salomon, just the economics of it but they hope it will pay off in the long run. The big companies like oakley pay a lot too thus why everyone wants on them. Then clothing, goggles, poles things like that pay but no where near like ski companies will. Mountains you ski for some provide places to stay and money. Contracts have photo/video incentives, for a cover you get paid so much, full page etc...I believe most are only if their product is visible. Movies pay by the length of the segment and what movie it is in. A poorboyz movie pays more than something made by your buddy down the street with his high 8. Contest prizes are also payed out...They arent getting rich but guys like Tanner, JF, and JP make really good money. I say the best off are people like Mike Douglas who have a good business sense not just a ski ability...he does commentating and he inevitably will manage a major team or another high marketing position for a company. Top boarders make a lot more money and that wont change for a while...if skiers get on TV ads they will make major money. Mt Dew, easy way to make some money.

Where did I EVER imply that golf took no skill? I did not disparage against golf at all or take away from it, I simply DEFENDED SKIING. I never said golf was easy. I can see where you might of got confused though. I answered another question in my reply about skiing taking balls and then followed it up on a comment on how skiing takes talent, but not disparaging golf's talent base. They were comments on two completely different things. GOLF TAKES MORE TALENT THAN I WILL EVER HAVE. THERE. Jeez.....

As for the mental things, I was simply COMPARING the mental anguish of both sports. The threat of being hurt isn't a prevalent in golf, but it is certainly a factor in skiing. In skiing, the wind isn't as huge a factor as it is in golf. Seperate mental and physical challenges. Mental factors are there, just different ones.
