He ruined the Brigantine Beach ride and also screwed another forum member. (Thats what I know of). Its a small community but some scumbags slip through the cracks until something else major happens. Now we use the power of the group to stop it.

...I can only imagine he took the hull home and starred at it for hours...Glad to hear Mark Gomez got his poop back. Cool dude, what other pro comes to Minnesota to ride in August? He does.

If you read Mark's response, He was suppose to meet up with Mark D early monday morning to get cash, but he was running late and Mark D said he would have the money sent by his bank.

He didn't set up the fund or ask for any help. I'm sure he was embarrased that people thought he was stranded or something when really he had everything covered like the adult he is. Maybe he asked for it to be closed. Who knows.

i think its super cool of our community to join together and help him out, even if he didnt ask for it. iv been asked by people who dont ride skis, "how much does a pro rider make?" and i just answer "minus 10-15k a year" its almost impossible for these guys to have a good paying career when they spend so much time traveling and in the water. fyi all the skis these guys ride is payed out of pocket with minimal discounts from "sponsors"

Sponsorship = Discounts and Free Shirts..........
I use to be sponsored some. Dont get me wrong. I was very appreciative of the help. But in all honesty. There is just not the money these days like there use to be.

They make $10-$15k a year? It's hard to tell. It's not our business what they make either way. How does $15k a year buy 2 $30k skis a year...?
sponsorship = HUGE discounts or free it seems...

I don't understand why some people are getting there panties in a bunch. Know one said one bad thing about donating to mark. Only thing that basically was said is why would you trust a random person with a 10000 dollar hull. I don't get it. Buddy got his hull and goodies back at a cost. Lesson learned, don't trust random people.

Come on. That's hard to believe. For the fact the skis are worth as much as they are. They travel everywhere. What's the point then? I love riding my ski just as much as the next guy but if it cost me that much to ride and build a ski. I'd sit on the beach and drink a beer and watch. Haha. That's crazy
