ALAUDARK COLLABORATION PROGRAMS - 2026

What It Is?

A collaboration with ALAUDARK is never just about free gear.

Every product, opportunity, or form of support is earned — through long-term commitment to building your influence, the skills you develop through training, the knowledge you gain through continuous learning, or the thoughtful ways you integrate our brand into your own projects, including school work.

It is important to clarify that this programme is not a form of charity. it’s a reward and an incentive, built on trust and mutual respect. It exists to recognise riders who have already demonstrated meaningful efforts and alignment with our core values.


Why It Exists?

Rooted in our Mission, Vision, Values, and Purpose, this programme reflects our belief that every rider deserves the chance to be seen, supported, and empowered.

To turn that belief into action, ALAUDARK reinvests around 10% of our total sales back into the freestyle MTB community — through athlete sponsorships, product giveaways, independent product reviews, and education-related projects.

Unlike large commercial sponsorship programmes that focus primarily on podium results and established names, we continue to place our resources on potential, shared values, and long-term commitment. Talent matters — but so do values.

Everyone who supports ALAUDARK becomes part of this mission.

Contract Sponsorship

What It Includes

  • A 20% lifetime discount, plus a optional 10% follower code for your community

How It Works

Sponsorship is not built overnight.

To ensure our support goes to the right people, Contract Sponsorship is invitation-only, selected from our enrolled talent pool from collaborations.

At the same time, we want to be transparent about the structure of our support.

Our sponsorship model is not built around continuous, indefinite investment in a small number of individuals. Instead, it is designed to keep opportunities moving and to reach as many deserving riders as possible, worldwide!

We believe that access matters. By allowing support to circulate, we can open doors for new talent, create space for progression, and ensure that the programme remains fair, dynamic, and aligned with the broader community.


Eligibility & Expectations

  • Prior experience with ALAUDARK products, whether through purchase, giveaways, second-hand ownership, or direct product support, etc
  • A clear, traceable history of collaboration with ALAUDARK, including but not limited to the programmes listed above
  • Not complete stranger, meaningful interactions — collaborations, conversations, tags, reposts, shared content, and ongoing engagement, etc — all count as part of getting to know the brand and each other

To build a sponsorship ecosystem that rewards commitment, encourages growth, and creates opportunities for more riders over time — not just a few.


Integrity & Publications

As the programme evolves, we are also taking additional steps to avoid misuse and fraud.

The following athletes have successfully passed our evaluation and are currently in a 7-day public notice period. If no valid objections are raised during this time, their sponsorship will be formally confirmed.

Athletes FAQs

Once your application is received, our team will review your profile and the collaboration types you selected. Based on your background and eligibility, we will determine the most suitable pathway for you.

If selected, we will contact you directly via Instagram DM or email. The next step only begins after you confirm and accept the relevant terms.

Age requirements vary by country and region, particularly in relation to social media use and personal data sharing.

If you are under the legal age, you must confirm that your parents or guardians have been informed. We will take your situation into account when matching you with the most appropriate collaboration type.

A successful collaboration is assessed primarily through measurable participation and engagement.

This includes clear, trackable indicators such as content reach, views, interactions, comments, shares, reposts, and overall audience response across relevant platforms. These metrics help us understand not only visibility, but also the authenticity and impact of the collaboration.

Yes. While audience size is helpful, our primary focus is on riding ability, creative quality, and genuine passion for the sport.

For programmes involving social influence, a minimum of 500 followers and 20 Instagram posts is required.

Quality always matters more than quantity.

Due to technical issues with our previous application system, some submissions may not have been properly recorded.

If you did not receive a response, we encourage you to reapply using the updated form.

The QA Interview is a short, informal conversation via Instagram DM. It helps us better understand you, your expectations, and your understanding of the sponsorship programme.

Not everyone will pass. Progression depends on your profile and responses. Even if you are not selected, continued engagement through other programmes is always welcome.

Shortlisted athletes entering sponsorship consideration are subject to a 7-day public notice period.

An Instagram post will link to our website, where limited athlete information is displayed. If no valid objections are raised during this period, sponsorship will be formally confirmed.

This step helps verify identity and background, ensuring transparency and fairness across the programme.

The sponsorship operates on a 12-month cycle so that opportunities can be extended to as many riders as possible.

Our programme is built on the belief that everyone matters. Rather than concentrating long-term resources on a small group, we rotate support to create space for new talent, encourage diversity, and maintain a fair and balanced ecosystem within the freestyle MTB community.

At this stage, the sponsorship programme does not include financial or cash-equivalent support for competition-related costs.

The official sponsorship period lasts 12 months from the date you are onboarded on ALAUDARK’s Instagram.

At the end of this period, the sponsorship — including free product support — automatically concludes, without the need for separate notification.

Any support beyond this point is not time-based, but shaped by your contribution during the sponsorship period and your continued engagement thereafter. This may include content collaboration, community involvement, or other forms of support aligned with shared values.

Many athletes who have previously been sponsored continue to stay closely connected with ALAUDARK. We are genuinely grateful for this ongoing relationship. Their connection with the brand has never been defined by free products alone, but by mutual respect, trust, and a long-term commitment to the sport.

All sponsored products are covered by a formal agreement.

After the 12-month sponsorship period ends, ownership of the products automatically transfers to the athlete.

However, if an athlete fails to meet the agreed engagement or interaction standards during the sponsorship period, ALAUDARK reserves the right to request the return of all sponsored products at the athlete’s own cost, at any time.

If, after the sponsorship, an athlete no longer uses the products, we strongly encourage passing them on through a giveaway to other passionate riders, rather than reselling them. This approach reflects the values we care deeply about — respect for the community, fairness, and long-term contribution — and is an important reflection of the values and integrity we expect within our community.
