A Blind Video Chronology: Guy Mariano, Jordan Richter, Mark Gonzales, Rudy Johnson, and Jason Lee..
From Transworld
From the article in our October issue:
Blind’s new video X2vision is in skateshops and iTunes now. To prepare you for this video we are providing a photographic glimpse of what TJ and Yuri have cooking as well as a chronology of Blind videos leading to this release. Familiarize yourself with the classics, revisit the archives, and get ready for Blind’s new installation of their signature blend of tech-gnar.

Video Days [1991]
Hands down, one of the best drinking and driving PSAs ever made. Guy Mariano, Jordan Richter, Mark Gonzales, Rudy Johnson, and Jason Lee drive off a cliff after 20 minutes of epic skateboarding. How many lives would have been saved if all skate videos ended with a moral told through the team’s death?
Tim And Henry’s Pack Of Lies [1992]
Oh the lies! Released as a two-part promo for a Blind full length to be released that fall, Tim and Henry’s Pack of Lies was just that. If only other false promising products were named so appropriately: Ron Jeremy’s Enlargement Pill of Lies.
20 Shot Sequence (segment) [1994]
Henry Sanchez, Lavar McBride, and Ronnie Creager close the video with the Blind section of this World Industries flick. World Park funbox tricks dropped jaws in this pre-Mega Ramp era. “Free Bird” re-edit anyone?
Trilogy (segment) [1996]
What appears at first as a Martial Arts spoof intro is in fact the most appropriate way to kick off Lavar McBride’s masterful display in this discipline. Gideon Choi, Josh Kasper, and Ronnie Creager join him in Blind’s segment of this offering from 101, Blind, and World Industries.
Rodney Mullen vs. Daewon Song (SEGMENT)[1997]
The Blind team claims the tinkering piano of The Rolling Stones’ She’s a Rainbow in skaters’ minds throughout the world with this release. Gideon Choi, Josh Kasper, Lavar, Robbie McKinley… Is it possible to think of anything outside of Creager’s rain footage when hearing that track?
Round Two: Rodney vs. Daewon (SEGMENT)[1999]
Gideon Choi, Josh Kasper, Corey Sheppard, James Craig, and Ronnie Creager were on the fight card as the Rodney vs. Daewon battle continued. The Blind team joined other Dwindle companies in this heavyweight rematch.
What If ? [2005]
14 years after their first and only team video, Blind returns with a full-length featuring their most extensive and diverse team to date: Corey Sheppard, Jake Duncombe, Grant Patterson, Evan Schiefelbine, Aaron Artis, Carlos Ruiz, James Craig, Jake Brown, and Ronnie Creager.
