What type of money can an amateur skateboarder make?

Tony Alva (Pro Skateboarder) gives expert video advice on: How do I achieve amateur status in the skateboard world?; What types of contests are there for amateur skateboarders?; How did you qualify for skateboarding contests? and more...

Amateur skateboarding is not geared around money. It's just geared around sponsorship which would come with maybe boards and t-shirts and wheels, and just all the accoutrements that it takes to be a skateboarder. And maybe occasionally you will win trips or get trophies or stuff like that.
