Distressed Man with Cannon "Bombarges" Vallejo

Though Chris Young does not seem like a dangerous man, he is responsible for leaving the city of Vallejo in ruins. Friday marked Chris' 20th birthday, but despite plenty of birthday wishes via "loving" friends on Facebook, Chris Young was not satisfied. In a matter of 2 hours the young crazy Young, shot off 20 heat infused cannons in several directions of Vallejo neighborhoods. Though no witnesses have come forth yet, Matt Tuite, an upset residence of downtown Vallejo, complains, "They just remodeled my neighborhood and then some bastard just bombarges it with a cannon. Sick." He then went on to groan, cuss, and make several other textbook Tewie noises...

Alright, alright here's what really happened...

Little Kid Good

By government record his name is Tyler Gaul, but to Vallejo locals he's recognized as the Blonde Bomber. Pajama outfitted, and all too clever, this product of Vallejo public schooling fit right in our crew of opposites that was forming six years ago. A strangers first encounter with Bomber would probably read like this, "Met this funny looking white kid today. He was talkative and comfortable, as if he knew me for years. It made me uncomfortable."  But his intentions have always been to involve everybody no matter shape, color, or mental capacity. And as far as his own mental capacity goes, he'll forever get a kick out of outsmarting and out-witting people. He could probably talk Danny Way into retirement and make Lizard King feel like a dry salamander. Much of what he has said in the past has become a staple in our crew's (and even other crew's) vocabulary. However, you'd never find him following a trend, unless that trend was skating in a soccer jersey from yesterdays game and rocking shoes that could un-hip the hippest hipster.


Phat-Farm shoes and all. circa 2006.


and year later. 2007.

It was an inside joke years ago that Bomber would always remain "little kid good" but at his peek in skating, he was blowing minds with his manny variations and his bag of flat ground. Practicing a trick before filming was not his cup of Heem; on most occasions, he would learn a trick on the spot. The best example would be the manual frontside flip he pulled in his Maybe Later part. To this day he claims "I never did that trick before, and probably won't ever again."


Bomb Threats claim to fame. 2010.

For anybody who has had the pleasure of knowing Blonde Bomber, they'd tell you that he hasn't really changed a bit. Sure, more recently he hasn't been around the crew as much but his personality remains as calm and confident as his pajamas and his skating remains as little kid good as ever, of course.

Sincerely,
Vallejo Skateboarding
