P-ROD'S BIO
I'msure you've heard the name Paul Rodriguez . The 20-year-old Paul shareshis name with his father, a famous comedian and TV star. But, Paul isjust as well known in skateboarding, as his father is in hisprofession. He goes by the name Paul Rodriguez without the "Jr." and isalso referred to by the nickname "P-Rod" which was given to him by hisolder cousin.
 
Rodriguez excels in the genre of streetskating, which uses environmental objects such as stair rails, curbsand benches as launching pads for tricks. He is also well respected forhis technical mastery on a skateboard. Paul has been called "one ofthose few skaters who were born to skate."
 
P-Rod is so highlyregarded as an athlete that he is the face of Plan B Skateboards andone of only five people in the world with a shoe names after him byNike. In 2005, Nike SB released its first signature model skateboardshoe, the Zoom Air Paul Rodriguez. And Rodriguez has the distinction ofbeing the only Hispanic to receive a pro model show with Nike, as wellas the first skateboarder to receive this honor.
