Gregg Weaver

Gregg Weaver, born on 9 January 1961, is a skateboarder who was part of San Diego's famed skate scene and one of skateboarding's early superstars. During the resurgence of skateboarding in the early to mid 1970s he was one of the most heavily photographed riders, a favorite subject of both Warren Bolster and Art Brewer. When Skateboarder Magazine was reissued in 1975 after ten years of being defunct he was featured on the cover of its first reissue, and the magazine received more fan mail for him than for any other skater. He was nicknamed The Cadillac Kid because of his sponsorship by Frank Nasworthy, who owned Cadillac Wheels, and he now lives in Huntington Beach, California.
