Amazing response to this Mark Gonzales and Chrome bag giveaway contest, and we’re blaming it on the general epic nature of The Skateboard Mag readers. Thanks, everyone.
It was difficult to choose an answer from all the best, but we managed. Carl Ginsberg’s touched the most hearts, so he’s the go-to winner with his response to how a bag like this would make his text messenger lifestyle complete.
“There are a multitude of reasons why this bag would be a necessary addition to my life. However they’re not simple reasons such as ‘skateboarding rules!’ Or ‘I own everything Krooked!’ I don’t even own a bicycle, so I’m not some fixie guy looking for a free handout.
“Essentially, I commute to school daily and my other backpack is definitely fading in quality. Obviously I’m a fan of Mark Gonzales and his art, which prompted me to write this comment, but I am mainly just going for it here. But that’s besides the point, I’ve heard that Chrome bags are of higher quality than regular bags which also persuaded me to write.
“Of course I would be ecstatic if I was to win this bag, but I am no braggart. I am a simple skateboarder who takes the train everyday, skates to school, goes to class, and gets by. It would be rad if I got the bag, and it is rad just knowing that TSM, Chrome, and Krooked are all down to help someone out by hooking it up with a bag and goodies.
“Nothing can really make one’s life complete, this bag would just definitely make my school life significantly easier. It doesn’t help that it is stylish too!” —Carl
Well said, Carl, and thanks.
Keep an eye out for your winning care package (TSM shirts, stickers, a subscription to The Mag, and your Chrome bag) really soon.
