Nike 6.0 welcomes Jonathan Gonzalez to their European team

Known for his unbeatable style, Jonathan a.k.a. Black Shark, likes to everybody; he enjoy surfing everything and everywhere, from big waves in Tenerife where he lives to the endless tubes he’s known for, with a mix of old and new school.

He’s one of the few surfers out of Europe who found a respectable spot in the world scene, by doin’ WQS for 7 years, earning scalps and recognition with hard work.

“Jonathan Gonzalez is a true surfer. He’s the more allround and stylish surfer in Europe. In a contest, If he’s in the good mood, he can beat everybody; but he’s also a good dude to spend time with, always with his itching to do someting new.” said Philippe Malvaux, Nike Team Manager and Coach.
