Meet Chaz Ortiz
“Growing up in Chicago, Chaz had an itch for skateboarding at a very young age,” KidzWorld once wrote. “When he was just six-years-old, Chad begged his dad to buy him a skateboard. When his dad gave in, Chaz took full advantage practicing tricks day and night. It wasn’t long until the pint-sized skatepark star started making a name for himself around the Windy City and eventually the world.”
Chaz is now 17. Check out this video from sponsor Zoo York.
