Marc Johnson (skateboarder)

Marc Johnson was an American professional skateboarder, born on 6 January 1977, known for his creative and passionate approach to skateboarding and awarded Thrasher Magazine's Skater of the Year in 2007; his article gives his death as 26 May 2026. He moved from North Carolina to San Diego in 1994 and began riding for Maple Skateboards, then moved to San Jose and skated with the crew known as the Tiltmode Army. He rode for Emerica Shoes, appeared in their video Yellow and had two pro model shoes, and Rodney Mullen added him to the A-Team skateboards brand. He had the cover and opening section of the Transworld video Modus Operandi, then left Emerica for Lakai Limited Footwear, and launched the board company Enjoi with Mullen's support, breaking with tradition through humorous deck graphics and irreverent magazine ads that did not show skateboarding.
