Mark Gonzales

[MrBirdpeach]

@Danealwwe - totaly agreed rodney Mullen is and always will be a legend. FLAMINGO NIGGA.

[zain8noah]

was this recorded with a tissue box?

[Danealwwe]

I can't wrap my mind around that fact that people actually hate on Gonz. You are all a disgrace to skateboarding and should quit. This man was a pioneer, just like Rodney Mullen was, and he was grinding handrails before you were born! Have some RESPECT! You kids will ruin skateboarding, I just know it. The creativity will be sucked right out of it, and it will be nothing but robots doing 720 nollie bigspin heelflips. All of you can fuck off, REAL skaters want nothing to do with you.

[MFVideos97]

@Danealwwe I think I love you for that.

[ChadwickRyan]

god damn! Old man Gonz doing a switch 360 ollie flip at 0:58 like it isn't shit!

[Alwayshredready]

Do them finessefull

[KillerToyMachine]

you ran into me

no you ran into me

[stapelnr1]

best part 3:30 - 3:48 Haha

[timbo76]

double thumbs up! The Gonz always ROCKED!

[skateindef]

i wish gonz was my dad

[skateindef]

so mob

[utubes4noobs]

young people like myself need to appreciate skaters like Mark because he and others made skating what it is for us today. Shout out to the Gonz, thanks a million

[SidewaysIsDead]

I remember watching this part and video like everyday back in 6th grade. Mark is still and will always be the pioneer or creativity in street skating. I honestly don't think skating would be as fun or colorful today if we didn't have the Gonz.

[thesethkane]

wooord

[gee3peeo]

it's right under the views. Run DMC's Rock Box.

[lanson94]

song ??,

[TriicKiEZ]

he is so weird BUT FUCKING AWESOME

[TheRoastedpotatoes]

so funny at the start!

[krevo81]

His tres are still legendary like 20 years after Video Days lol

[562ole]

the rail at 3:30 was part of a movie was up rockers, were some skater kids were skating, came all the way from south central to skate it, in the movie

[soberpunk]

It's really nice to know that guys like the Gonz are still around. There's a lot of shit that sucks about skateboarding right now. It's turned into a sport thanks to dickheads like rob dyrdek and his clan of idiots. Everyone looks the same, does the same tricks the same way and on the same shit. Kids need to watch old footage of the gonz and cardiel to see what skateboarding is all about.

[Keithisill]

Much love to my all-time favorite athlete Mark Gonzales!

[KillaO86]

Isnt he a CCS Team Ryder

[JumboJamz]

yea dude the Gonz insn't jewish. He's just rad.

[gorillaz101998]

gonz is a REAQL skater not a skater for money like rob dyrdek and ryan shecker

[salmonphatshoes]

he should win SOTY every year. not all this boring stuff nowadays

[jokamund]

FRESH!

[erick91402]

songs dope

[n23f]

and... dont get hurt.

[JumboJamz]

oh well i never said Gonz was jewish I was just implying that whoever dislked this was an asshole. nazis are assholes. they also hate jews so i can see where you made that connection. i shoulda just said whoever disliked this is probably a bmx-er.

[Jon95McC]

That a zip zinger at the end?

[matthewdw94]

skate fast

[JumboJamz]

the 23 people who dont like this are nazi's

[ELBRENDITTO]

@JumboJamz Why, is Mark Gonzales jewish?

[cmonty72]

I hope that was staged cause The Gonz too k that old man out. :)

[loudmouth119]

23 people don't have insurance

[theRBninja]

mark gonzales is definitly one of the best personalities of skateboarding

[rand0mshizz24]

damn. this guy is good.. hes goin rlly fast and lands a treflip. great skating!! :D

[vampireheart301]

WHATS YO NAME SONN!?!?

[nrector1]

Hey look, back when people skated for fun and didn't try to make it into a sport with a bunch of social expectations and rules associated with it.Stop trying to be cool and have fun and you'll have an outlet for life...don't waste the gift that has been offered you.

[Mrdave939]

thumbs up if you can the ollie..

[Lilpetegr01]

[stealingcandy]

[zibafu]

@stealingcandy impossible, now I must watch this video several more times to be sure :)

[tom3999]

ahhahaha the start is funny "have you got insurance"... "...I..got medicare"... "good" lol

[Joeskeets]

was that spike?

[msromyilano]

@agentslapshocker yeah that's a good idea. support the pros!

[JellyLungs]

such a unique style

[madsappeal]

Bitch should get slapped for disrespecting the elder. Nice skating though.

[girlMccrail]

@madsappeal you should get slapped for that comment

[dreadwing]

Show off

[msromyilano]

it's so cool that now i can watch his and stare a my matching techdeck. this isn't a commercial but it's sort of sounding like one. it's made of maple ,it's krooked and it's mark gonzalez and i'm still too scared to take it out of the box because it looks beautiful!

[agentslapshocker]

@msromyilano

Then just save/ask some money and go buy another one.

[jokamund]

What's yo name sooooooooon?????

[torche100]

Just one thing : RESPECT !

[PlanB2Baker]

i think it's people like mark that make skateboarding a true art.

[dvs1572]

After my third concusion, I suddenly understood Mark and his skating. He is the best.

[tpatricklynch]

I respect what this guy did and the beginnings pretty fun, but c'mon, I could do half the shit in this part and haven't skated a lot for like five years

[dirtmigart]

@tpatricklynch sure you could do it but nowhere near how he does it

[issacscoots]

@tpatricklynch neat.

[YOUNGMONEY4LlFE]

LEGEND

[JVSKATES12]

2:04 i skated that spot last week its near a hookah shop:D

[NightshadowWindsong]

DUDE! Mark G totally spiked my style! we skate almost the exact same way. :D

[PlanB2Baker]

@NightshadowWindsong but do you skate at 10,000 miles an hour while doing switch flips? XD

[NightshadowWindsong]

@PlanB2Baker . . . no. >_>

[L07EK]

@PlanB2Baker its not any harder doing things faster, just means you're less of a pussy..

[bakerB1B2]

@L07EK fuck yea man, but i find when i go faster i gotta ollie quicker

[L07EK]

@bakerB1B2 oh yeah, of course man. gotta snap it so much quicker to keep the momentum

[1baconater1]

@L07EK try kilckflipping half way down the mount Everest

[10menonachest]

his haircut gives me the impression that his name is doug.don't know why.

[skateboardfilms1]

Mark Gonzales rox!!!!!!!

[crowy85]

i dont understand whats wrong with the 21 people who disliked it... its the fucking gonz!!

[rasquatch]

just because you do inverts and then switch 360 flips like Mark, this does not make you old school.....if he just does switch 360 flips and switch kick flips then i can see you sayin he is old school because those tricks were made up like 20-30 years ago, but i don't remember seeing the Bone-up to lip slide down a ten back then.

Old school New shool...how about F@@K School little cacka

(F@@K, that means Happy)

[BurbsDesperado]

boners for bonelesses (thumbs up)

[thebrianwilson]

mark must compile an obscene amount of footage haha. so gnarly.

[heythere9285]

so old school

[JimmyMcmillan]

dude i like this guys style oldschool is where its at

[inkedpinup]

As always Gonz rules! He's may be 'old' but I am too, and to me he'll always be the BEST street skater!! (Tho I miss the Gonz/Natas days!!) He's funny, brilliant, a painter and poet, and KILLS when skating- FEARLESS- no one can out do Da Gonz in my eyes!

[Notespompon]

This is more entertaining than any massive sheckler kickflip

[FortyOzSwilla]

Watching this guy skate gets me so much more hyped to go out a shred than any of this flip in flip out, stuck up snobby bullshyt from todays skaters, Ive noticed a LOT of snobbish behavior from skateboarders nowadays with the "oh you didn't land perfectly on the bolts" or "your toe dragged for a milla second so it doesnt count" mentality, Gonz just goes out and rips it for the fuck of it, He has true steeze

[NitsuaNaed]

@FortyOzSwilla hell yeah man

[MathewsSkater]

@FortyOzSwilla i dont see how wanting to land tricks cleaner makes you snobby?

[erick91402]

@FortyOzSwilla That's why this guy is such a great skater not because of the difficulty or technicality of his tricks but just his style and how just enjoys riding his skateboard.

[Mpower77i]

@FortyOzSwilla

well said

[YourSisterFuckedMe]

@FortyOzSwilla Man I totally agree about the snobbish skater bullshit. I see it every time I step out of the door. They don't skate for fun and that right there is the entire fucking point! I knowt this one dude who every time we skate by each other on my street he doesn't so much as glance. Shit thats not skating. Where's the fun?

[bakerB1B2]

@YourSisterFuckedMe fuck yea, you skate to skate, too many people skate because others skate

[bakerB1B2]

@FortyOzSwilla fuck yea man, thats why i love watching BAKER vids, they land all over the show and they rip, i say if you land on the board and roll away, its a land.

[DadYedwog]

@FortyOzSwilla amen

[2ftsk8r]

@FortyOzSwilla when they say that kinda stuff they're joking. and young guys like shane o neill and cory kennedy and tyler bledsoe and wes kremer are pushing the limit you have to acknowledge that.

[afiq360skatevids]

@2ftsk8r yeah fuck this fortyoz guy trying to act cool like he knows everything. i think he cant even skate

[2ftsk8r]

@afiq360skatevids Well then your just a dumbass the Gonz is a legend.

[afiq360skatevids]

@2ftsk8r WTF i said this fortyozswilla guy cant even skate

[2ftsk8r]

@afiq360skatevids Ohhh I'm sorry I take that back.

[ccclllaaarrrkkk]

@FortyOzSwilla Thank you sooo much someone else feels the same.

Like yeah these kids today are doing tricks never been done before but lets not destroy the heart and soul of skateboarding which is just being free

[xlReGaRdLeSslx]

@FortyOzSwilla someone cant kickflip?lol make that 113 people cant kickflip.

[FortyOzSwilla]

@xlReGaRdLeSslx huh>?

[FortyOzSwilla]

@xlReGaRdLeSslx I bet I could give you 4 letters inward heeling alone.

[xlReGaRdLeSslx]

@FortyOzSwilla Kid your bad stfu i was doing inward heels before you was even born and i know for a fact you cant do 4 differnt variations of a inward heel you trashy ass bitch.

[FortyOzSwilla]

@xlReGaRdLeSslx Is that a fact, I happen to be 25 'kid' and you're obviously a fucking moron, calling someone you've never met a trashy ass bitch, grow up you clown, and on my profile I have a pic of me doing a switch front tail down a 9 stair hubba, I don't see fuck all on your profile faggot.

[xlReGaRdLeSslx]

@FortyOzSwilla First of all your nothing but a liar, second your name is FortyOzSwilla LOL get a life you fucking loser.Lieing on youtube wont make you cool bro no matter how good the story is.

[FortyOzSwilla]

@xlReGaRdLeSslx Keep trolling son. I got nothing left to say to you, poser. You're a joke.

[fak3skater]

crazy oldskool  tight

[lanceobregon1]

haha do you have an insurance do you have a license

[bigtimerip1]

if you cant appreciate this, you do not skateboard. Gonz has fun. skateboarding is supposed to be fun. training to win dew tour is not fun

[KomradKrome]

Gonz, still loose as fuck, still dope as hell.

[xsploitedsecurity]

lmao at some random black guy knuckle bumping the camera dude.

[venomjake]

i like how he isnt afraid to grab his board like some guys

[royaloil]

he kickflips like a goober

[hollywoodjokerpicalo]

that's the way to be sponserd. no pressure just do what ever you want no 50 stair hand rails no comps just cruse.

[misterMrKr]

I'm better than he is. All he does is fuck around and act like a total asshole.

[shakejuntt]

@misterMrKr trust me dude, your not better then him

[MrDisAsteroid]

@misterMrKr i'm guessing you skate street so you shouldn't be doing anything but thanking the gonz for creating street skating.

[jagonation]

@misterMrKr he is a legend of skateboarding, show some respect you pre pubescent maggot, try to finish your homework and listen to justin bieber instead.

[NOMPTONstyle]

@misterMrKr fuck you you dont know a thing about skating, haha better than the gonz...you should stop skating because you obviously dont appreciate it

its not always about certain tricks sometimes its just the originality and creativity that gives him legendary style

[xsploitedsecurity]

@misterMrKr

You couldn't kickflip off a curb to save your entire family!

[aakkoin]

@misterMrKr there are a lot of people technically better than him... but he is the inventors of street skating, he did boardslide and 50/50 the first handrails ever, and was first to ollie and kickflip wallenberg... but you should know that already.

[dekoork1]

@aakkoin

[dekoork1]

@aakkoin he never kickflipped wallengerg dodo...but he did ollie and influence skateboarding in many ways hes a legend

[aakkoin]

@dekoork1 oh sorry... well he did ollie and kickflip 'the gonz gap' in san francisco.. and was first to trick switch!

[colchesterton]

@marCool1053  But still would've given him a heart attack

[tom3999]

wow this guy skates really hard and its working, street skating is awsome

[ageofquarrel123]

mark gonzales' "i truly and deeply care about what you think" is the same as his "you're a fucking idiot" face.
