I Ride FMX and everybody i know says i'm very good...?

Question

The only trick i have yet to master is the backflip, because i dont have a foam pit.

I was wondering if anybody had any tips on how i could manage my career, and become pro?

Answer 1

I was just recently reading trnasworld motocross magazine and they were talking about how to get sponsored. What you must do is enter AMA tournaments localy. When you win these you will get points...(say 10 per win). When you get 100 points you get a pro-circuit badge and can enter pro tournaments and entering these will definitley get you noticed.

Answer 2

You should become best friends with Travis Pastrana.

Answer 3

well then go on down to Annapolis, MD and try his out

i've even been there (not to jump into the pit) so you can get in

Answer 4

well, if ya can't flip  then its going ot be tough.. to be considerd a "pro" all you have to do is get paid for doing it... Try and get together with some other people in your area that do it.. You need to network with other people in the sport to try and get in doing a show at a local fair or something.. I have a friend that does FMX and whe the clear channel fmx  tour comes around they let him try to qualify.. He just showed up at the event and signed a waiver and went out and jumped and made it into the show.  You might want to make a video if you are going to go that route, it might make it easier.

Answer 5

find a foam pit. and practice practice practice!

Answer 6

You have to get noticed and to do that you have to win competitions.  Start with as local a ones as you can and then hopefully all going well you can progress on and then the rest follows.

If you are not already a member of the AMA join up and get the imformation in regards to what competitions are available to you.
