Abnormal Communication: Episode 4

[@technodrone313]

the gonz's youtube channel is one of the best on the internet. its exactly what you'd hope he would serve up.

[@sk8poompers]

What's his channel called?

[@MaBcMCLAN]

@@sk8poompers pretty sure its just mark gonzales

[@elpadre4202]

It's pretty much the only channel I always click on when he posts. You never know what your gonna get.

[@whatmemories3728]

Quit blowing it out!

[@MaBcMCLAN]

Maite is easily becoming one of my favourite skaters. Her style and the crazy tricks she does is exactly the stuff i like so much about skateboarding.

[@duncanmcewan839]

The trick with the yoyo was super cute!

[@BrandnRex]

Maite is a ripper!

[@michaeljohn8905]

A true legend if you dig back through the archives. Withought Gonz I wouldn’t be skating until 50. He was my first skate hero.

[@benmarquez1715]

gonz has inspired me in so many ways and its safe to say he’s one of the backbones to skateboard, no matter who you skate with they know gonz

[@skate_floppa1679]

Finally!! It's back, these are the best

[@viscountsb7140]

Maite is one of my new fav skaters, that surf style is so sick.

[@BrandnRex]

Gonz you are an amazing inspiration and a wonderful human being. This was a beautiful video can’t wait to see more. Shout out to all the skaters in this. Amazing footage!

[@ricesteamer8]

any gonz footy is a blessing

[@4lung]

Seeing maite skate always puts a big smile on my face. So much get-up-and-go in that kid’s style

[@manbaerpigg]

Watching the Gonz restores my hope for humanity.....your rad man keep um coming thank you

[@travisyarbrough4033]

Gonz had us old schoolers out trying to get the biggest Ollies possible...... Great to see him still involved and out there !!!!

[@droog79]

Wow! This is it, this is why I started skateboarding and why i still do! Pure skating fun and creativity in a nutshell. The gonz does not disappoint , keeping it real and fresh after so many years! Yes yes yes.

[@droog79]

And Maite just rips big time!

[@michaeljohn8905]

Dude I just wanna say this .I grew up on Long Island New York . It wasn’t what it was now I lived in the LES and grew up with some of the best but I have to give a huge bro hug to you Mark. i vividly remember seeing an ad of you olling something big in a ditch when you rode for vision and when Blind came out It was pure Magic to me. I wanted to skate street , vert anything and the artistic and musical part just fit the lock that lived within side me and opened up a door to let me be free . Thanks Gonzo. Much love to you and your family. ❤ both of them . 😂

[@qulpe]

Saw Maite skate cph open and instantly became one of my favourite skaters. Love the surfy style

[@ShivaSolentei]

Gooooooonnnnnnzzz! The man since I started skating 40 years ago as a small kid.

[@sdmagnolia9]

LOVED seeing so much Maite and Jenn footage! This looked like the best time. Nice one Adidas.

[@eddymunnyz7315]

Gonz...GREAT POINT ABOUT HOW TIME SPEEDS UP AS ONE GETZ "OLDER" ❤😃😎👍🙏☝

[@GearSeekers]

This is such a vibe

[@russellmadahbee8072]

Guaranteed Want to skate now hahaha Thank you for sharing! keep skateboarding out there folks!

[@illuminatedsoles331]

and here I thought skateboarding was played out. The vibe in here is EXACTLY what skateboarding"s soul is made of.

[@sgtbeavis115]

this is my favorite thrasher series

[@RealSkateStories]

Skateboarding is a million different things to a million different people. This video is a wonderful celebration of that.

[@robthegod1]

I guess. A lot of honks and sloppy tricks. Where is the skill and style. I have seen shop videos in 1991 with better lines. Gonz was dope. The last line was cool I guess.

[@yaboi.hitmaizer]

@@robthegod1 there's beauty within everyones style you just got to mature a bit to be able to appreciate it. When I started skating ealy 00's all I cared for was Zero and every other style was non appealing to me, now a days I find beauty on everyones style. Skateboarding is rad, it's not one dimensional, techy and steezy all the time and thats lovely

[@robthegod1]

@@yaboi.hitmaizer I feel your thirst for inclusion has blinded you. Bonks and sloppy style has been done. It’s not new. Check 89 -91. I don’t like to relive bad shit. Folks have an issue being objective and honest. 95% of the video was sloppy and the skill set was low. If folks can admit skill and style don’t matter and people have reverted back to sloppy 1989 shit I’ll be quiet

[@yaboi.hitmaizer]

@@robthegod1 All I said is you can find good in that. Not everything needs to be done perfectly steezy and technical, and if you are exclusively into that, there's videos for you too man. You can't take away people's right to appreciate sloppy styles or low skill level, maybe some older skaters relate more to it. there's a million reasons to enjoy this video, and if you don't I'm sure you'll find more suitable for you content out there 🙏

[@robthegod1]

@@yaboi.hitmaizer I am a older skater. I was outside as they say in 1990 and 91 when there a lot of sloppy shit going on. We moved past that. It’s just crazy to me that such low skill levels are being promoted when so many actual good skaters can’t even get free grip. It’s flat out blasphemy. Sloppy bonks and flappy noseslide slides have their place in homie videos and back in 91. If you can’t see my point go watch any shop video from the past 30 years and see all the skilled skaters with great style who got 10 buck of a deck a shirt. Celebrating shit slop again is blasphemy period.

[@dukeofaragon2309]

LETS GO!!!! I surrend myself to the charm of skateboarding.inevitably and with delight.

[@lotwizzard1748]

nicely worded😎

[@losfeliz3421]

Jenn, I’m an instant fan. Sick execution and trick choice

[@crushform2734]

Talents to take skateboarding to the next level have gathered to gather now. All of them are talented people who can transcend the boring common sense of generation, gender, culture and ideas under the influence of the great skateboarding godfather called Gonz. I was so moved that I couldn't stop crying.

[@BirdiePierce]

lovin the 8 Days a Week... classic .. Wheels of Fire - Klause Grabke

[@skater_scott]

D. Duncan gave you one of the best compliments. "Gonz just has to be NEAR a skateboard and looks cool!"

[@mattnuevo6334]

Thank you for this song..good memories

[@cuttinaboot]

The lay back 180 rock thing maite done was fucking wicked

[@findingnemo6669]

The double set clips were my favorite

[@max-eq3qo]

I remember that either the varial was second try or the bs big first try

[@edubu7642]

Reece got fuckin balls

[@paulocostaswine.1909]

Varial flip was nuts 🔥

[@2sk8mafia4life]

bro is amazing

[@princequestly2218]

I’ve always said you can do every trick in the book if it looks ugly it doesn’t matter, style is everything. Gonz is the king 👑

[@robthegod1]

Besides gonz and one trick and one line everything else was basic and void of legit style. Waste of a classic song also. Bonks and sloppy tricks all day

[@infinidominion]

We're gonna overlook Gonzo's kf's too, ain't no big thang

[@Retcon__]

For us old timers that first song hit right in the feels

[@gavintiesing4570]

I missed this series more than anyone on the planet and I believe that

[@LeonPaxton]

Maaaaan the vibes of this video are so good! 🥺 Good to see Aussie legend Jack Fardell out there too 🥳

[@josiahamaze]

Absolutely love this art piece collection

[@Paramirth]

Firing line at 6:50 is done with such perfect pace and style!

[@AeroGanter]

Please document mark more this one was so nice to watch. Cant belive he is still skateboarding so good.

[@ZackDowdy]

Favorite Thrasher segment right now, they crushed Owl's head! Makes me want to skate!

[@MrBaskins2010]

mark forcing them to the staten island ferry spot made me cry. skated that shit every day in high school. adidas got the avengers on deck

[@ryanyt6971]

Also, Maité's style is absolute fire. 🔥

[@ryanyt6971]

0:18 - wow, that's an old-school move I always joke never looks good no matter who's doing it. You just changed my mind. ❤️

[@dneck]

omg yes so glad this series still going

[@FriendStreetStudios]

That first song gave me the best flashbacks.

[@careymahoney1605]

Opening track from Santa Cruz legendary video Wheels of Fire from 1987... 100% epic !!. Also the curbs Gonz is hitting at 0.30 looks like are from WOF too ...Natas was featured skating them.

[@marcusprince3999]

Thanks mate. I knew this song sounded very familiar. Is the one on this video a cover of the original? Now I want to try to find out what band pwrformed this song on the Santa Cruz video!!🤙

[@careymahoney1605]

@@marcusprince3999 band is Eight Dayz and song is What's so strange about me.

gonz, a skaters favorite skater

[@samakatindi7399]

the music is dope

[@CIWise]

You see, this is the thing--and, please, somebody tell me if I'm wrong. The thing about Gonz is just being around him changes you: as a person, as a skater, whatever. These kids are even doing tricks that Gonz would do. I don't know them, so maybe I'm wrong, but I would bet they weren't skating like this before linking up with Gonz. Gonz is infectious. No disrespect, but it's the reason so many of us would rather tune into a two-and-a-half minute video of Gonz riding a board shaped like the f***ing Batmobile (probably all of us wanting to buy one of those horribly unskatable things), bailing a frontside slappy to no-comply out--meanwhile, watching happily, on the edge of our seats, waiting for the make we know is coming at the end. We'd rather do that than watch most of the current top pros' Instagram uploads. We secretly believe that watching a Gonz video--listening to everything he says, trying with all our might to decipher his Gonz-wisdom--will somehow let some of the Gonz-dust rub off on us and that it'll make us better skaters/people for it (like it did for these kids). Or, maybe it's just me.
