Hannah Shucksmith Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 You have to have reached an amazinggg standard of riding and hope to the Heavens that they recognise you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Same as most companys really. If you make a (good) name for yourself and, ideally, are a good rider then give them a shout with some decent pictures and video and see what they say. Don't think about what they can do with you, as if it's just cheap parts you're after then you're not going to get it. Sponsorship is a two way deal so from a company's POV you need to be a good representative for not only yourself, but also for them and for the sport.You have to have reached an amazinggg standard of riding and hope to the Heavens that they recognise you...Not necessarily true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 umm bjorn levin (swedish) and joe brewer (australian) arent from the uk...Indeed but it makes no sence for them to do it. How much business do you think that they do outside of the UK? with postage prices, although with the exchange rate it may be quite favourable.

Rob Brodie Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 i would imagine most 'mainstream' trials companys will look at things likeHow dedicated to the sport you areHow much you have done for the sportIf you stand out (will give good promotion)If you support local clubs ectHave a good rep within and out of the sportthings like that. obviously being a good rider helps but i don't think its essential Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron.Tottman Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Dedication....to the sport...your riding...to the company in question.a good personality won't go a miss.i'm guessing ofcause but it's what i would look for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
