Willie Santos: Fil-Am Pro Skater
Dec 18, 2008

Willy Monolato Santos is a Filipino-American professional skateboarder born in Subic Bay, Philippines. He has been skating for 19 years. He currently resides in Poway, California but grew up in Mira Mesa.

Willy Santos was one of the best street skaters during the dark early 90’s. He was pushing new tricks and winning proper gritty skatecomps (not your TV extravaganzas of today) with illustrious style and grace.

Now he owns his own skateshops, Willy’s Workshop (Rancho Penasquitos & Mira Mesa). Willy also organizes community outreach programs, created his own shop team and even assisted the design of the local Rancho Penasquitos skateboard public park. Willy Santos currently is sponsored by Birdhouse Projects, Hurricane Trucks, Vans Shoes, Billabong Clothing, G-Shock Watches, Jones Soda, Bones Brigade Bearings, and Willy’s Workshop. Check the video’s that we dug up from youtube.
