Professinials skateboarders get over 9000 dollars a year.
Many skateboarders are sponsored, which means that companies will pay them to promote their products (think Tiger Woods and Nike). The more famous a skateboarder is, the more offers he/she will receive for sponsoring. Famous skateboarders will make lots of money doing this. Otherwise, all skateboarders income would come from winnings in competition. Prizes can vary quite a bit and the amount a skateboarder can make will be dependent on how good they are. Most skateboarders must have another job, as they do not make enough to support themselves.

Nothing; they're amateurs. (Prize money is another matter.)
