How long and hard do you think it is to become pro and make stunting a life career?

Then How The Hell To Guys Like Darius And Jason Britton Get To Travel The World N Shit. So The Pros Still Have Jobs Even Though They're World Famous Stunters. I THINK THAT IF AND HOPEFULLY STUNTING MAKES IT TO THE X GAMES THAN WE'LL BE ALRGIHT PEOPLE ARE WORRIED ABOUT FINANCIAL ASPECTS

CARNAHKT · 08-04-2008, 09:41 PM

man you can count the guys the make a liveing solely stunting probably on one hand. Maybe in the future there might be more big name pros at the same time though right now stunting is on a realatively low skill level in ten years it will probably be a whole lot harder to make it to the top.

excessa · 08-04-2008, 09:42 PM

It's practically impossible to make a living at it right now.

cbr_stunt · 08-04-2008, 09:49 PM

I Did A Research On Motorcycle Stuntriding An Found That You Can Make As Much As 100,000 A Year. And Up To 10000 Grand A Show. Someone Told Me That Starboyz Want Even Make And Effort To Show Up At An Event If They Dont Get Paid 5000$ Im Not Worried On The Money Part. I Just Thought By Being Pro And Stunting As A Career Would Be Awesome!

5gs cuz they think they the shit! Not everyone does shows for 5gs. And idk 2 many stunters who make 100k a year. But like everyone said u can only count the stunters who make a good lump sum on 1 hand. Its alot of work u have to get known and i dont mean get known in yr local parking lot nor known in yr small hillbilly town who think wheelies r #1 and they take pics and flash their boobs. U gotta put alot of time into it alot of money alot of sweat and alot of hookups!!! :>

It would be, but it's only a select few that actually do it. If you're in it for the fame then get out.

Ace Bandit · 08-04-2008, 09:58 PM

Yeah thats cause they are coming from ohio.

Even though they are getting paid 5000 thats usually the cost for put up, gas, food if not provided at the event. Usually each a rider walks away with 500 to 1000 bucks a show. At least this is what Ive heard. Like Darius and other riders they usually charge around 3000 for a show. Buts it not just darius showing up on a bike by himself he also brings his trailor with his shifter cart motard and a few bikes and buddies. So theres more to it then just riding to a show on your bike doin it collecting the money and piecing out.

CARNAHKT · 08-04-2008, 09:59 PM

It is very hard to get more than a couple grand for a show unless you have well known name like starboyz or servinitup no matter how good you are. Then you split that three or four ways for the riders and figure gas, hotels, tires, bike upkeep, many bigger shows require event insurance which runs about 10 thousand a year. After all that you'll be very lucky to make much $

It depends on how hard and how long YOU want to work. And the odds are you still won't make it.
