You might know Gonogold from social media – charging crusty Colombian hills with wild, eye-catching lines and rocking torn-up punk fits that feel like a breath of fresh air in skateboarding.
In the latest episode of Skate Tales, Madars heads to Medellín, Colombia in search of the infamous Gonogold and three of the city’s gnarliest hill bombs. From La Loma, to Gonogold’s own neighbourhood in Castilla, to the smooth nighttime descent of Puente Madre Laura, each run has its own vibe: local rules, neighbourhood character – stories of those who’ve dared to make it down. Skate Tales dives deep into the streets and corners of Medellín, revealing a different side of the city and Gonogold’s story.
