Author Topic: Best surname in skateboarding (Read 1988 times)

colinjustdidthenoseslide · « **on:** April 17, 2024, 01:24:54 AM »

I was daydreaming in a meeting the other day and starting thinking about which surnames came up a lot in pro skaters. That got me thinking about what the best team would be if you could only have pro skaters with the same surname (and lets say that each skater is from their peak era so older/past skaters are still legit).

I thought Team Anderson would be pretty decent: Brian Anderson, Andy Anderson, Jake Anderson

Any other good ones I'm missing?

There is a big difference between “best” surname and most common surname.

Best surname candidate is Greathouse.

It's a shame the actual Mark Gonzales never did anything of any significance on a skateboard

You could add Joe Johnson to hold it down on vert/park also.
