Goals As A Go Fast Athlete

My goal as a Go Fast Athlete is to break into the snow sports market; I have joined together with Rossignol and have arranged filming with Warren Miller, Fusion TV, and The Discovery Channel. We are now reaching a point where the companies I align with are ready to make mainstream media moves, I want to align myself with an energy drink company that want to be a part in breaking into main stream snow sports.

 

12 years of experience flying paragliders mixed together with speed flying and snowkiting is the reason I am able to push the limits of snowkiting past where anyone in the world has seen.

 

I am Starting the AP Challenge. I Challenge any snowkiter in the world to a big jump hang time fly off. $1000 entry fee. The rider at the end of the day with the longest hang time takes home the cash.

 

Expectations From Go Fast As A Sponsor

Being an athlete dedicated to pushing the limits of what is possible in snow sports as well as fostering growth in our new sport in various ways of media and exposure. I would request endorsements to include: $1500 per month for 6 months of active endorsement. All the Go Fast I can drink.
