ℹ️ Revision of Proposal 393, where I included 15k USDC inspired by Noun 40's suggestion (albeit misunderstood) to assist with tax burden in this candidate proposal. Having received much feedback via vote reasons, and getting some professional advice regarding gifts, I realised it was best to cancel, in case the prop passed and set the wrong (and expensive) precedent. I've also included this interview with Bob hosted on Tavern by Brennen and 4156, as it was often cited as a FOR vote reason. Thanks for taking a moment to understand my oversight as you reconsider your vote. Also special thanks to Brennen and Shark DAO who sponsored the original candidate proposal while Noun 189 was occupied elsewhere.
Requesting Noun 542 to a hardware wallet address retrieved from and owned by Bob Burnquist, the legendary Brazilian-American skateboarding hall of famer, and repeat Nouns DAO contributor.
Bob Burnquist, a name that resonates with innovation, audacity, and unparalleled skill in the world of skateboarding. Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Bob has not only transformed the skateboarding landscape but has also left an indelible mark on global culture. Gifting Noun 542, adorned with a skateboard head, to this skateboarding maestro would be a fitting tribute to his legacy.

His Brazilian roots combined with his global appeal have made him a bridge between cultures, fostering understanding and appreciation for the sport across continents. ## 🧲 Media Magnet
From video games like the iconic "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater" series to documentaries and live broadcasts, Bob's presence in media is vast. His Dreamland series, which showcased his private skatepark, was a testament to his creativity and became a viral sensation. His stunts, especially the heart-stopping Grand Canyon jump, have been broadcasted worldwide, further cementing his status as a skateboarding superstar.
Bob's heart is as big as his talent. Through his institutes and foundations, he has consistently worked towards the betterment of society. From promoting skateboarding among underprivileged kids to championing environmental causes, his philanthropic efforts are commendable.
Bob's engagement with the NFT world and Nouns DAO is not just as an icon but as an active contributor. As a partner at NFT Brasil, he's at the forefront of integrating the vibrant city of São Paulo into the NFT landscape, with a robust collaboration planned in the coming year.
His social program, Skate Cuida, is a testament to his commitment to community upliftment. Through this initiative, he's been onboarding individuals into the world of technology, offering programming classes, and witnessing transformative progress. The launch of SkateboardingCares.com, a collective that's making "concrete waves," is powered by That's Gnarly and further amplifies his dedication to merging skateboarding with technological advancements.
Bob's advocacy for the NFT space is evident in his active participation at various events. His recent presence at Blockchain Rio and the upcoming engagement at Rio Innovation Week from October 3-6 showcases his dedication to promoting the onchain world. With Skateboarding Cares DAO being a pivotal component, he's ensuring that the skateboarding community is intricately linked with the latest in blockchain tech.
For those keen on tracking real-time updates on these endeavours, Bob's Instagram and Twitter both serve as a window into his contributions and the broader impact of these initiatives. Or to get some further context on Bob's involvement with Nouns DAO, check out Proposal 142 that was sponsored by Gnars DAO.
Gifting Noun 542 to Bob Burnquist would be more than just a token of appreciation. It would be a celebration of a legend, an acknowledgment of his contributions, and a testament to the indomitable spirit of skateboarding. We'd be embarking on a quest of serendipity together, where the potential for collaboration is boundless.
Bob's committed to repping Noun 542 and participating in governance, as both a voter and nounish builder. His creativity and groundbreaking track record are testament to what he could, and already does, bring to Nouns. If there are times where his full focus is needed elsewhere, there's ample opportunity for thoughtful representation through delegation, either by his team, vast network with deep industry experience, or as part of educational endeavours at his institute.

I've followed Bob's career since I was a child, and as an amateur skateboarder, I'm thrilled to have even met him, let alone be collaborating with him directly. Gnars has taken me on such an incredible journey and Nouns has made it all possible. It's a wonderful feeling to come full circle and present an opportunity such as this one to the community I hold so dear. Can't wait for everyone to see what Bob's been cooking.
🔥 Here's to Season 3 and the future of Nouns!
