mark_gonzales_skate_krooked

To celebrate Gonz’ birthday yesterday Krooked unleashed Mark Gonzales‘ part in the Krooked Kronichles video from 2006.

This has the lot. Longboard inverts, British park slashing, street goofing and a Spike Jonze cameo.

The man is timeless, ageless and still manages to keep us entertained after so many decades. Long live the one and only Gonz.
