Mark Gonzales

Video Days, Blind Skateboards, 1991 If you watch only one part from the early street era, make it this one. Spike Jonze filmed Mark Gonzales skating parking lots, ditches, plazas and streets with a playful, unpredictable energy that still feels modern, and the part includes the first ollie of the Wallenberg set in San Francisco, a gap that still scares people. Video Days is often credited as the most important skate video ever made, and this part is the main reason.
