0zzy Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 these are just a few questions which have always puzzled me so any help would be great,1. why isint there no competeions (sp?) for 24" trials, is that because of the lack of riders? the sport isnt big enough to have 3 catergries of competition ? etc i have no idea really to be honest.2. how do you get sponsered? i know im not good enough for sure i ride for enjoyment anyway its just how does it come around to happening? i would like some answers from that and peoples experience please.3. last but not least what would you pic for trials biking parts, a light part but mainly lacks strength ? or a strong part which weighs loads?thanks in advance ozzy. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riing 24" at comps is the same as riding 26". 2. Some people get sponsored becuase they get good comp results, some becuase they're amazing street riders.3. Most trials components are light and strong these days. I always try to buy parts that don't have a habbit of breaking. Like deng stuff.

Dan- Go Mod Go Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) Well.. i used to skate and they way to get sponsored is to either win at a competition where the trials or skate team or whatever is there. if they think you are good enough chances are they'll ask you too put up a sponsor me vid of all the stuff you can do.You could put a trials vid of yourself up on youtube? i bet people who want to sponsor look thre first?Or just plainly ride the streets everywhere maybe where you know decent riders will be..just a few ideas. hope they help.As for the parts, i know of V!Z, Deng, Echo and Zoo!.. they strike me as good makes. truely Reliable.But i dont know anything about trials competitions at the moment.Danny- Edited January 4, 2008 by Dan- Go Mod Go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadManMike Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 To get sponsored you normally need:1) Good riding in Comps, good results...OR2) Good street skills.Not just that though, you need a good attitude, one that the company thinks will set a good example to good new young riders.
