Blind is a skateboard company founded by Mark Gonzales, in 1989 under Steve Rocco's World Industries empire.
The name "Blind" is an intentional slight to Gonzales' former sponsor, Vision Skateboards.[1] He has since left the company and today the company continues under the ownership of Dwindle Distribution.
Blind markets decks, wheels and accessories as well as clothing. The company's logo is a stylized grim reaper.
