I would imagine that many endorsement deals involve NDAs (non-disclosure agreements) that prohibit discussion of not simply the terms of those agreements, but that the agreements even exist or have an NDA clause.
So, we may not know if artists are actually getting a check in addition to equipment, but even if not, just because the artist might have purchased that gear anyway doesn't mean, I think, that they're not getting compensated: just not in cash.
In fact the very notion that the artist would have bought the gear regardless allows the free gear to make available funds to the artists to acquire other goods and services that don't have to go to the gear to effect their craft.
