Javier Mendizabal #5.



Griptape art.

Javier is from the Basque Country in northern Spain. He started skateboarding in 1989 and was one of the first riders on Cliché when Jeremie Daclin started the company up in 1997. He would later turn pro for them and stayed with Cliché until they called it a day in 2016. Javier has also been sponsored by Gravis, Quicksilver, and Converse. His part in Strongest of the Strange is one of my favorites. He's got some supreme transition skills.

RIP Preston "P-Stone" Maigetter. Beer Helmet is a seriously great video.

Vert Is Dead will be back on Tuesday, September 5th with a week of CCS catalogs. Have a good weekend.
