What makes a difference between posting clips to show your homies and get your name out there, and being a tom wallish pro influencer kid? Like Sleepy Grill vs like Karko or Votaw. All 3 of them post frequently but karko and votaw just give off a clout chasing vibe. Is it possible to consistantly post to get your name out there and take advantage of the spotlight social media can give you with out being flamed for being an influencer kid?

huey69Im not flaming anyone I am confident in myself. I was just asking what separates a clout chaser and someone that posts frequently. Everyone took this shit the wrong way.


Nah, I think a lot of ppl are on the same page. Clout chasing is a dumb term, should just call it what it is, it’s self promo, and everyone wants ppl to see their clips. If I was good I’d film and post daily too, so would all of us. You can also both post constantly and make video parts and full edits, a lot of ppl don’t but people do.

Most legit dude, I think I messaged you on ig when I arent deleting It about pocket sandwiches. Man of the people clips bombing runs and wallies off slow signs, and a front flip in November at killi was the sickest trick I’ve seen irl. B
Karkoskiergoing to OP's original questions here..

I guess by gaining a following of enough people who care about what you're doing?
Which happened to me by posting clips to show my homies and get my name out there. I don't consider myself an "influencer" my instagram profile to me is my personal blog of my life primarily centered around skiing with a side of other things that I think are cool.

I'm very thankful for the amount of people who follow me and enjoy the content I post. As a 28 year with a full time job it keeps me motivated to continuously progress my skiing and put out content. I honestly never pictured myself skiing the way I do still, and having so many people care about watching my ski videos so thank you to all of you who vibe with me and what I do!
