Back than it was still kind of hard to get your photo on the web and to make sure everybody would see it , magazines were still the way to go and I think still that magazines are the way to go for proper content , like this interview for example .
Which path is the better option is a great question , one nobody can answer . You need to be able to do both , be a complete rider , keep your “ fans ” up to date about what you do . Make sure sponsors are able to run sick content from you in magazines and win competitions . It ’ s a full time job , so if you ’ re a young kid and you think you ’ ve potential , you better start training real hard to beat the guys at the top !
