Blind

Blind Skateboards was started by Mark Gonzales in '89 after parting ways with Vision. At the time, Mark was contemplating retirement because he didn't like the way Vision operated and felt skateboarding was no longer fun. Steve Rocco convinced Mark not to quit and to instead start a company with him where he could do whatever he wanted. Mark eventually left Blind due to the same frustrations he had with Vision and started ATM Click.
