The Vision Gonz Reissue Deck is straight out of the 80’s with its original mellow concave and a shape that most old school skaters are familiar with!
It’s a timeless and classic design, just like the company it’s from. Mark Gonzales is known as the pioneer of modern street skating, and for good reason! Having started skating at 13, he made a Thrasher cover in 1984, and he’s known as the first rider to ever boardslide a handrail!
He was even named “Most Influential Skateboarder of All Time” by the Transworld magazine in 2011. He’s been sponsored by Adidas, Krooked, Spitifre, Independent and even Supreme!
So grab yourself a Gonz Reissue Deck and celebrate the past while skating the future. This Original Concave feels mellow and responsive, ripping transition and street altogether in the ’80s fashion! Show your respect and ride a classic Vision deck.

He’d been eying this rail by his house for weeks. He gave his artist friend plans for the ramp. It looked impossible and then he did it. It was truly a magical Gonz moment in the city he loves.
Started in 1976 by Brad Dorfman, Vision initially began as a skateboard brand, sponsoring the likes of Mark Gonzales, Mark 'Gator' Rogowski and Tom Groholski.
In the early 80's Vision sports released their first pro model skateboard for skater Mark 'Gator' Rogowski.
This was followed by a release of a pro model deck for skater Mark Gonzales, both designed by Los Angeles-based artist Andy Takakjian.
Gonzales went on to release a few more pro models with Vision before departing to form Blind Skateboards, (a play-on words with Vision) with World Industries.
Vision was also one of the first skate brands to connect with the subculture of music, releasing skate decks from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Beastie Boys and Agent Orange.
