BLIND is an attack against VISION - Mark Gonzales' former sponsor

In late-1989, Mark Gonzales approached Rocco with the desire to be involved in his own company. Gonzales was riding for Vision, which was one of the top 3 skateboard companies in the world at the time, alongside Santa Cruz and Powell Peralta. Gonzales and Rocco decided to name the company Blind, in contrast to Gonzales' former sponsor

Wall Street is a dope shop, if your ever in Lyon go check it out, they got a concrete mini in the pack and curbs everywhere. It's not far from HDV.
