In trying to think of the most appropriate way to launch a skateboard blog, it’s probably best to pay homage to your heroes, no?
So with that in mind, here’s a photo I snapped of Gonz in the East Village a few years back. I saw him from down the street with Bobby Worrest. They were doing slappies on a curb and just clowning around. I didn’t want to interrupt, but couldn’t help it. I ran over to get the photo and was grinning like a fool the whole time. And trust me when I say I’m past the age of product tosses and getting autographs at demos.
Anyway, so here’s to celebrating one of the game’s true originals, and a guy who always seems to do it his way.
And so it goes … welcome to Champeen.
