Jon Dickson
Jon grew up on a farm in Illinois with a small patch of concrete at his house where he learned the basics. In fact, Jon's first time skateboarding, he broke his leg, which led to his parents to forbid it. A short time later, his sister bought him a board and they kept it a secret. A skate rat at heart, Jon couldn't be stopped. He started going to the skatepark with his older brother and really honed his skills. Fast forward to 2007, Jon found his way into Birdhouses' The Beginning video. It was clear he had what it took. Eventually Jon made it to Deathwish Skateboards after Figgy put in a good word. The rest is history. Jon turned pro in 2013 and has been a mainstay ever since. Jon's enjoyed a rather successful pro career filled with jaw dropping video parts, SOTY chances, Pro model shoes, and more. Today, Jon's continuing to push himself on and off the skateboard; focusing on his health, family and letting his skateboarding do the talking.
