Gonzo Question Not About the skate
the USD advertisement running for Gonzo wishes him luck in the future etc. I'm assuming he has too many real-life commitments to be a pro-blader anymore. Is this the case?
I was j/w cause the guy truly is a legend.

if ur gettin mad jus invert it like.... BAM
it says... husband... father...
im guessing he is putting skating on the back burner for a little bit...
yea i was wondering if any1 actually in the know, knows if this is really the whole issue, p.s. the proskate looks really good i dont know any1 who has skated that model of USD's but they at least look great if you ask me.

im not in the know about gonzo... but im guessing since it says so in a USD ad... im guessing its true... and dont have any other reason to think otherwise!Originally Posted by Bsunity
yea i am not saying the ad is lying lol, just wondering if there was any other reason, those such as arlo manage to blade with the same commitments. but its a total shame to lose him

open your eyes!!
oh shit... haha sorry I'm apparently blind, and retarded. Thought it was a print ad.
I'm pretty sure he still skates once in a while but not for any companies now.

sucks that they shafted him with a grycon
who the fuck wants a pro grycon?
i would take a pro grycon if i didnt skate very much... or even if i skated daily i would take one... and i dont even like USD.
Words from the Jesus
Life's responsibilities make it difficult to dedicate so much time to blading with little to no monetary return. Rollerblading is infectious though and there will always be the urge to strap up in the back of your mind. When the air is still and the brews are chill Gonzo will roll. Orale brother!
arlo also made a shit ton of money off rollerblading. he was in Newsweek top 100 businessmen to watch for. he was doin it when rollerblading had mad cash. he wasn't some kid living in the hood of LA making a couple hundred bucks a month total off all his sponsors.
its like this...you know your friend from high school who now has a job and kids and therefore can't go kick it with you and watch movies and shoot hoops (or whatever) because he has to raise his family and work and stuff? that's gonzo with blading.
sometimes real life happens, that's when your hobbies (no matter how much you love rolling, it's a hobby, a past time, literally a way to pass time) lose 1st place and you learn to prioritize your life.
