you got a couple hammers in there, start hitting some street rails though and work on your style and youll be golden! I really liked that Kickflip back 1 over that drop/sidewalk gap.

You really shouldn't have a problem getting sponsored, just send it to the companies.

That is really good skating, but I personally don't think that it would cut it. A lot of your ledge tricks were done very slowly and many things that could have been landed more cleanly. Also I think that you are going to have to throw your switch game down some bigger gaps. Just keep skating man. You have lots of potential. This is purely constructive criticism so don't hate.

You definitely are decent but I don't think sponsor potential. Some tricks got pretty repetitive and made it boring. Skating shin-high ledges and park rails don't really show your skill that well. I hate to say start skating bigger stuff but there is probably 5,000 kids that are just as good as you out there. Keep skating though and having fun. Sponsorship isn't all it's cracked up to be anyway.

Your icon is or at least used to be very commonly used.

Your post count is low.
And this is NSG.



Seems like your using us.

Stop it.

Well where ever that rail was, park or in the streets, it was tiny. You claiming you're already sponsored is just another reason why kids think being sponsored is so great. I could go to any skatepark and see kids just like you or better without any sponsor. Not trying to be an asshole but keep skating and having fun. Sponsors will come eventually if you deserve them and have the skills.

man just cause it was small doesn't mean I can't use it Shane O'Neill one of the best pro's out there and Guy Mariano, Marc Johnson all had enders on flatbars or ledges that were small but technical tricks. Being sponsored is great because for people who go through lot's of stuff need some help getting things. I never said I didn't have fun skating and yeah I know, I'm not going full tilt haha.

Dude just because your sponsored by one company or shop, that doesnt really mean shit. I skate with a kid all the time who gets flo from dc, hes not that much better than most of the local skate crew but at least hes tryin to get his name out there. You gotta start somewhere, man. Hes obviously not going to get picked up by Creature or Vans or a company like that with this part. sponsorship doesnt mean pro, bro. fa sho, yo. smokin dro, you know. outta controe dont skate on snow uhhhh people have five toes

Nice trickery guy, i'm feelin it. Carpet gap, harbour front and cbc, some staple spots for a toronto skate kid. Get some commerce lines and unitel footy, blown out but pretty sick spots, it'd be sick if bata was still around. Good luck.

you had about 4 really nice shots that blew my mind as a kid who skates with a couple spounced kids (i go to NYC to skate all the time) you need to hold your grinds a little longer before you flip out shop's eat that shit up

I love that you don't have a second of park footy in the whole thing. Kids need to know what real skating is.

Loved the 270's the last 2 made me yell a little. Loved the gap in the snow, and the 3.

You seem like a kid who knows whats good, so I hope you find someone who thinks the same. Good luck man.

OP you have the most ridiculous username ever.


The entire concept of an offroad bang bus startles me. Although it could make for some quite niche porn...

that was actually pretty good. have you talked to local skate shops yet? it could be easier to get a local sponsor first and enter some competitions

Sick tricks, but you should probably try more lines, and getting more speed for some stuff. Like those ledges you were barely moving up to. But talk to local stuff and enter contests, youtube/vimeo isn't really "patrolled" by companies looking to sponsor 16 year old kids.
