Gonz Goes Viral
A New York barrier gets the Gonz treatment in this new Indy ad.
As predicted by many, Mike Vallely’s Elephant brand skateboard company has unearthed a Black Flag deck in record time.
It was only 6 weeks ago that he was announced as the new singer for the band but this has been released in a series of new decks available online this week.
It’s a beast of a ride coming in at 9.75″ x 31.0″ and costs £36.
This just hit our inbox from Blind:
“After 20 amazing and memorable years Blind and Ronnie Creager are going their separate ways. From the beginning Ronnie has been a one of a kind inspiration to all of us at Blind, the team, everyone at Dwindle and skaters worldwide with his uncanny board control and effortless style.
Over the years Ronnie has delivered some of the most technical and easy on the eyes video parts the skate world has ever seen. These parts are timeless and serve as inspiration for skaters of all ages from every corner of the globe. We cant thank Ronnie enough for all his contributions, memories and fun times over the years.
We wish Ronnie nothing but the best and look forward to seeing more amazing skating from him in the future.”
This was a big surprise. Raise a glass to Ronnie for loyalty reasons alone, let alone his incredible contribution to skateboarding for Blind throughout those years. We wish him all the best in his next moves.

Ian MacKaye on skateboarding
Minor Threat and Fugazi frontman Ian MacKaye talks about his passion for skateboarding in this newly edited piece of footage shot at his ‘Library of Congress Lecture’ last May.
“Skateboarding is not a hobby. And it is not a sport. Skateboarding is a way of learning how to redefine the world around you. For most people, when they saw a swimming pool, they thought, ‘Let’s take a swim.’ But I thought, ‘Let’s ride it.’ When they saw the curb or a street, they would think about driving on it. I would think about the texture. I slowly developed the ability to look at the world through totally different means.”
