Does anyone know how much the top pro's get paid for a video section? I just got butter effect, an amazing DVD and was just thinking about Keith Lyman. He isn't much of a competition rider, but is definately considered among the top pros. I was just wondering if these guys can make a living on video sections and sponsors alone.
i don't think riders get paid for doing video shoots, but as far as making a living off of sponsors alone, a few riders do well. for example, byerly doesn't really do comps anymore, but he's able to bring home the bacon to support his family.
