Wisest move is to use whatever sponsorship connections you have to get on the production side of things, like how Scott Johnston designs shoes for adidas after designing shoes for Lakai.

[somefucker]

But theres two numbers 4's and 11 options.

If you don't earn Nyjah bucks and you want to stay in the industry, this is basically the only way. A desk job at Nike, DLX, NHS, etc.

Tattoo artist seems to be an emergent field for the aged skaters too. Think every tour van should have a tat gun so they can practice on each other. If you're going to get a Baker tat then what could be better than having it done by an og baker boy. There's definitely people that would pay a premium for that.

 What does Joey Valdez do now? Isnt he a hair stylist or something?

He actually highlights another path pros are going to take - get the fuck out of California, or never go in the first place, and carve out a niche for yourself in a place with a dramatically lower cost of living.

That’s actually Mikey Taylor’s arm holding the money and he’s giving it to Trevor to invest in go gurt stock

[phlap]

Not sure how many could realistically get away with it, but getting on Vans seems to be a popular one. I don't see Reynolds or Rowley putting out another full video part again, as much as I'd like to see it happen.

That, or shift from NBD's to NFT's, and hold on for as long as that scam seems to be lasting.

[swellbowed]

^^^^This.

Also wanna throw selling hardgoods in the mix. Not really much else to do to get money in skating after a certain age.
