Leo Romero

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Leo Romero (born November 28, 1986, in Fontana, California, U.S.) is a professional skateboarder. He is second generation Mexican. Leo first started skating around 1997 with his friends, "the Death Junkies". His early influences included Jamie Thomas and Andrew Reynolds, which perhaps explains Leo's tendency to skate large obstaces and handrails. He lived at the Emerica Mansion II with Heath Kirchart, Kevin "Spanky" Long, and Bryan Herman. He recently bought his very own home in Long Beach, California.[1].
