Bruno Willemarck is one of the new faces on the Grindhouse Flow Team. I met him several times now and I really have to say it's a really big pleasure to go shooting with him. He's really down to earth, intelligent and has a big heart.

Bruno Willemarck is one of the new faces on the Grindhouse Flow Team. I met him several times now and I really have to say it'?s a really big pleasure to go shooting with him. He's really down to earth, intelligent and has a big heart. Maybe it's the major reason why he's always smiling - and I really mean always! I think you could bounce into a room where you have nice action with his girlfriend and he would just smile and ask you if he should come later.
Ok I don't know about such a situation actually, I don't even know if he has a girlfriend at the moment but I learned to know about his rolling skills!
You will read some comments telling you he skates anything, everybody describes somebody who is better than you like this but Bruno is one of those guys who really tries to skate anything. He will tell you afterwards that he never tried something like this before. So I even had the possibilty to shoot with him in Brussels where he skates sometimes and I brought some digital evidence that this guy rocks!!
Rock on Bongoboy and cya next time!

We asked people to write about him on a Belgian msgboard, and here is what peeps had to say:

JJ:
- He's always down for a session if you can get a hold of him :)?
- He's my hero!
He wont back up if you ask him to do a trick on no mather what, he just goes up to it and does it especially if you tell him he'll get a t-shirt when he does so haha. And he has this thing with putting his hair behind his ears after doing a trick, and he looks like a mouse on pictures ;)

Bartjen_Vaughn_Bah:
he's my skatin' buddy, we always skate together, he skates on every spot , and he does all the sickest tricks.
hardcore bongoboy !!!

wout3r:
even though his skates mostly look like hell his tricks look damn good

Mastermind:
Bruno "Bongo" Willemarck.. what can I say about Bruno that will give him justice for his skating and his person.. This kid is alway's smilling no mather what.. he's ALWAYS down to skate anything ANYWHERE! I've known Bruno for about four to five years and he's still the same smilling dude with the most ghetto skates you could imagine.. he's also the only guy i know that will make skates out off nothing (damn, i mean.. this guy would even make his glue to put his parts together from own coocked rice!).. he's a great skater, a great personality.. but most off all.. he's one off my best friends!

Acid:
Bruno is the most modest rollerblader I know. When you compliment him on a trick or something he has done he almost blushes when he says thank you. he will skate with erveryone even if he has seen you only once before. I think he is a rollmodel to all of us.

warroah:
he's really relaxed , doesn't like stress at all and always believes everything will work out just fine... he's allmost like a jamaican dude who's goal in life is to relax ... but when he has something in his mind , when he see's a trick that would be beautifull ,he wakes up.?
he really skates for the art of skating and less for making progress (although he never stops progressing). he'll never do a switch-up if he believe's a single smooth grind would be prettier. (unless you challenge him offcourse)
for me his relaxing attitude can be really annoying (eg. i hate to lose skating time because we don't feel like deciding were to go next ) but his good sides surely compensates all of that .?
Bruno (aka bongoboy) a good friend indeed

Laurens:
I know Bruno for many years now and he can skate anything on anything. He can bust a trick with skates literally falling apart. He's always down for a discussion on whatever(philosophy, psychology, art, music, etc.) and can accept your opinion.
He can't be compared to any other skater, one that might come close to him would be Robert Guererro, and if Rob would know Bruno he would he would be proud of the comparison. You just know Bruno is blushing and has a red face while he's reading this, he so modest. He doesn't ask for attention, he gets it by being himself and doing his thing.?
And he's got some strange but cool ways to go on vacation... ;-)

Speedy:
I'll write something ... cause me and bart are the only guy's who know the real color of his dickhead ... so we really know the bitch.
Skating for the art ... I know bruno just loves skating and likes to push his limits ... can't see an other reason.
He can skate anything, even gaps now. Even tho then he can't do anal for like 2 weeks.
And the only thing you can do to make him angry is to trow a sleepingbag against his head ... twice ...
Can't say I like the bs I read here about him .... hahaha kinda funy.?

Mince ça fait trop plaisire de le voir là de lire tout ça sur lui.

I am from Paris and i met Bruno when he staid in my home town two or three years ago i don't know... So almost everything that's whroten on this page is true, i mean you would meet him you'would see it very fast. He's intelligent, he's open minded, he'e modest, he's nice... He's also a good skater, thanks to all this things. That's not ony skating, when you think to him it occurs that it's not about skating, it's good times. But i have to admet that is pushing you, he do new things and help you to do it too.
Bruno i'm glad to here about you by this way, or another, i heard you were in paris a few days ago... i hope to see you next time

ps : if you don't remember i m one of the twin brothers, we skated with Christian (chineese guy with thrones killed like bruno's ones) ... If you needed to recall i don't know

Another thing that needs to be said is that Bruno never seems to have a bad day in skating. Even when he's completely dead he still goes on.

BONGOBONGOBONGO

What a name, what a guy, what a personality
Abducted and raped by some aliens some time ago but now back and better killing the spots with ill (I mean ILL) tricks.
His secret weapon of choise gots to be his smile (and similarities to a mouse JJ is right)
Overall fantastic guy to know big props for sick tricks and last but not least his skates look not all beaten up for a change LOL
Thanx Be-mag for giving him the well deserved exposure and hot pics
