Mark Gonzales (born June 1, 1968), also known as "Gonz" and "The Gonz", is an American professional skateboarder and artist. He is known in the skateboarding world as a top pioneer of modern street skateboarding and was named by the Transworld Skateboarding magazine as the "Most Influential Skateboarder of all Time" in December 2011.
Gonzales was born and raised in South Gate, California, United States and is of Mexican descent.
Gonzales entered the skateboarding scene at the age of thirteen in South Gate, California, U.S. Then, at the age of fifteen, Gonzales adopted a more modern approach to skateboarding in a street context (subsequently dubbed "street skateboarding"). He was featured on the cover of Thrasher magazine's November 1984 issue riding a board from the Alva company, his board sponsor at the time, while performing a trick known as a "beanplant".
Shortly after his Thrasher magazine cover, Gonzales then joined the Vision skateboard team and attained the status of a professional skateboarder. Gonzales won the 1985 Oceanside street contest while sponsored by Vision.

Mark “Gonz” Gonzales is a downtown legend and a creative dynamo; his newest frame with sunglass specialists RETROSUPERFUTURE is just the latest in a long line of collaborations that range from Supreme to adidas, SEE SEE to New Era, but The Gonz makes sure to never step in the same river twice. Sitting in an art supply store in Soho, he mused on his creative process: “I wanna do things that haven’t been done yet, use new materials, do things new.” This philosophy applies across the board — be it shoes, skate-decks or citrus-orange shades, Gonzales makes sure to strike from a place of pure creativity and originality.

Today we talk a little about the technical end of how we make our vlogs. We currently use one camera for all the filming and thats the Sony a5000. This camera is great for the price but does have some issues. The one thing I didn't like was the onboard mics pick up a ton of unwanted sound. I was able to come up with a solution to this issue by adding an external mic and digital recorder to the set up. No one makes a specific cage for a a5000 but I was able to modify the Smallrig a6300 cage to work for the a5000. Now I am able to mount a Rode Videomicro and Zoom H1 to the camera. Now using this set up I was able to get much cleaner audio on our vlogs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with us...

We really needed to get out of the house. Today was a holiday so Mikey and Chris were off from school. After spending all day at home we needed to get out of the house. We took the boys to target to pick up some new toys. When we got home Matthew told me he wanted to sing a song before bed. The result was the cutest thing I've ever seen. What do you think? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by: Dyalla soundcloud.com/dyallas ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with us.

Thats right, today's video has been 9 years in the making. Back when Drew was pregnant with Mikey she found her way to an online community of expecting mothers all due in March 2008. Over the years several members of this forum began to grow an online relationship with each other that is now going on a decade. Unfortunately everyone is spread out all over the US and many of these friendships have only been online. Well today that changed a little. Drew's friend Heather was in town with her husband for a concert in NYC. That gave us a perfect opportunity to meet them in NYC and spend the afternoon showing them around. We hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...
[method man]
Uh, and it goes like this
Uh uh uh uh, it goes like that
Now let me tell you who I am
Up early in the morning, dressed in black
Who dat? *echoes*
[genius/gza]
Yo yo
Marvel this theatrical, drama on stage
Broadway classical, led men to rage
Like currents, the beat change and now a flow is strange
You in the arctic wit wolves that viciously main
Thugs that roam clubs, in the dark wit fireworks that spark
Saltwater vibrations comin from sharks
Blood-thirsty kids bite just as well as I write
You're like secretaries who can't type, you're no use
Broke down vessels who want a boost, there's no jokes
Quick fast you, get stumped 'cause you played, your organ pump
Kool-aid, from indiana wit the jones of a lost crusade
Hip-hop done hit the church, choir girls rockin mini skirts
The b-side kept plenty hurt
Push like the shovels in snow storms
And stack piles of foul, the shit you must grow on! *echoes*
Chorus [method man] 4x
Uh and it goes like this
Uh uh uh uh, it goes like that
[method man]
Pay no attention to the evil they speak
You caught the beef wit the equal eye, poisonous beats from underneath
Crack the concrete wit two left feet
Head on my meat
Ain't no games here we playin for keeps (we play for keeps!)
Introducing, the crowd seducing man on the street
Penitentiaries is either half-dead or too sweet
Back to basic, condition-al god, plus I can take it
Wagin war within the matrix, it's hard to see
Touch, hear, smell or even taste it, take your places
We runnin in these human races, bucking naked
Back-slappin kid yappin, actin villian catchin feelin like we cap peelin
As if we killin every brick in every project building
From cabrini green to tildens, sincerely yours
Mista meth and maximilion (da millions, da millions)
(ka ka ka ka ka ka ka kaaa!) (da millions ha!)
Chorus 5x
[method man]
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Wu-tang killa bees on the swarm (we play for keeps!)
(we play for keeps!)
Wu-tang killa bees on the swarm
