read this interview..there is no defining mark gonzales, his contribution to skateboarding will probably go underappreciated for years to come..but it is undeniable that this man is responsible for so many people continuing to skate, loving skateboarding and refusing to let it die, i am one of those people. from the beginning he has been a total inspiration, influence and reason why i love skateboards. he may not have ever about killed himself on the mega ramp in front of millions of television viewers but his impact goes so far beyond that, unmeasurable and priceless asset to skateboarding. click brainwash victim! the best part is i remember reading this when it came out, the chavo part was my favorite....
