My RUclips Channel: / jonnyswitzerland

Ok gabe.
My name is Jonny Giger and I'm a sponsored skateboarder from the Switzerland Gams area.
its hilarious xD
Haha broo 🤣🤣🤣
Aaron is god
I just can’t get it why someone who isn’t that good always has to let hang out his bachelor but those who are godlike on boards don’t do this 😂
Still funny
Ahhh the Swiss. "I have an appointment with my girlfriend." LOL
"And I ate 4 bananas today."
haha He has no big English vocabulary and you can tell that he often is not sure which words to use.
Rendez-vous?
Or maybe just " meeting with my gf" right? And what about bananas? Just learning English, sorry...
I'm joking with Rendez-vous, because they say it in english, but it's french and he said a sentence in french,
The banana line is just funny because... he ate 4 bananas.
"This would have never happened with your support" ok then:(
I read your comment right as he said it in the video😁
you got me rollin bro
first day as a pro and he skates the local outdoor park with no one there. my hero.
I love watching ur vids...I'm in my 40's now, but watching these keeps me 20...keep pushing
glad you like it :)
So glad you like the board! It was a real honor getting to design your first pro model. Can't wait to see all the crazy tricks you do on it!!! 🍉⚡️
Must of took you weeks to come up with that epic design .
+George Lopez haha luv ur sarcasm
Jonny, I love watching your videos! Congrats, the boards look dope!
thanks man! glad you dig it :)
+GAMINGwithMOLT omg you watch these too? congrats for 1.5m subs
congratulations on making pro!
:)
Next board: jonny giger banana pro model...tnx you to jonny😊
'Pro'
I was beginning to think I was alone dude. are we the only two people that watch hes vids that realize has not actually Pro. like buddy, here, tmrw I'll invest in a small business that makes skateboard decks. w what do you wanna call it? we'll call it 'Namaste👐' and I'm going to have the board printers spit out a few decks with your name. i'm making you pro to represent the company,(but we've been friends for a long time before this) but your still a legit pro. all the other pro skaters will accept you as a true pro. NOTTT
Billy C probably still 10x better than you'll ever be
i'm not even a skater, but found your videos randomly. congrats on the sponsorship, you seem like a legit dude!
One the nicest comments i've seen on youtube in a while. Thanks for being a nice dude :)
9:35 "This would never have happened with your support" lol
noticed that too :D
Nickzz 😂 actually made me laugh when I heard that
When I heard that I had too go back 2 make sure
Its a niggas second language, and he ate 4 bananas, chill
Congrats, Jonny! :) Keep it up and never stop skating! :)
Siema
Siemanko!
elo mordeczki
namaste! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
he just went pro I'm pretty sure he wasn't planning on quitting skateboarding
does anyone else notice that giant mountain of shoes?!?!?
Apparently he goes through a pair every 2 weeks. I didn't think he kept them though.
Jonny looked so incredibly happy and it made me happy watching him hold his pro model for the first time. I've never planned on riding revive but I plan on buying his and John's when he becomes pro. Congratulations Jonny!
ohh thank you :)
No problem :)
Congratz jonny with your crazy ass late flips you deserve to be pro!
I'm still waiting for your pro model to arrive!! I'm so stoked haha you deserve to be pro!!
I don't buy revive boards but I saw their graphics and I think jonnys graphic is the best. the colors are dope
Are you feeling it now mr crabs?
no
The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma..
I miss being 10 :'(
Jonny you deserve it so much man. Do what you do because you are a genuine person and there aren't enough of those nowadays. You're my favorite revive pro hands down.
thanks a lot :D :D :D
congratulations Johnny! your an awesome skateboarder and you deserve this!
Definitely deserve it mate. Congrats
So happy to see you finally getting the recognition you deserve mate. You are the reason I got into skateboarding. I truly believe that you are the next Rodney Mullen for so many reasons. Your creativity and entrepreneurship is such an inspiration and I look forward to see you taking the sport to another level!
So clever of Revive to bring "on board" charismatic RUclipsrs. And absolutely pro worthy skateboarders also, crazy no-onee beats them to it.
WHAT IS A PRO SKATBOARDER HERES THE ANSWER:
Basically, a skater is pro when he or she lives off of skateboarding.
So, if a skater is young, then it’s tricky to call them “pro”, because
they are still in school, live with their parents, etc. But, on a very
basic level, someone is a pro skater when they can live off of it - so
really, it’s up to that skater.
This type of "pro" is the same as in any other kind
of sport. Usually this type of pro will have a few sponsors, and travel
around to competitions, living off of the money generated from sponsors
and competitions (sponsors like their pros to do well in competitions
too, so the system feeds itself, as long as the pro keeps doing well).
However, there is a system among skateboarding companies where certain sponsors
will not call a skater they sponsor “pro” until they decide that that
certain skater is good enough. This type of “pro” labeling often comes
with products with his or her name on them. With this kind of pro
labeling, skateboarding teams will have a certain number of pro skaters,
and a certain number of am (amateur) skaters. This is used more for
teams who travel and do demos, and film videos.
And how much do pro skateboarders get paid for pro endorsements? That’s
TOTALLY up in the air. Some guys get loads of money to use their name,
and other guys - the less known pros - can get hardly anything. It all
depends on how they perform, how the sales go, and how much they are
valued by that sponsor. You’ll notice at events like the X Games,
when a skater does really well and the cameras are on him or her,
sometimes they hold up their skateboards to show off sponsor stickers -
or they make sure that certain sponsor stickers on their helmets are
always seen. That’s because that sponsor pays them well, and they want
to keep them happy and make sure the sponsor gets their money’s worth!
It's not all bad, when you think it through - if no one was sponsoring
most of these guys, they wouldn't be able to afford to travel and skate,
and we would never see them. Sponsorships and endorsements can make
things ugly, but they also open a lot of doors. There's a lot of room to
argue on this topic, and I think arguing can be healthy
Thanks, very informative comment
megapanka no problem friend glad to help as long are you weren't being sarcastic lol
As one who loves to argue, I'm not sure about the 'living off skateboarding' criterium. I mean obviously, 'pro' would suggest some kind of financial remuneration by the sponsor in question, apart from having your own signature model board. But exactly how much is subject to great variation: back in the day, big name pros might get up to 10k in board sale royalties each month, while other pros would earn less than minimum wage, and often make ends meet by selling product they got from their sponsors to kids directly. I have no idea what Jonny's Revive deal would pay, but it seems the era of big board sponsor money is a thing of the past across the industry as a whole. Some companies have stopped making signature pro models altogether, while at the same time Big Shoe companies have taken the place of board sponsors as pro skateboarders' main source of income. At any rate, I do hope this means Jonny can quit his job bar tending, because anyone with his talent deserves to be able to focus his efforts on his core business - skateboarding.
If someone has their name on a deck by a major company they are a pro. Doesn't matter if they're still in high school. Nyjah and Frankie Hill were certainly still pro skaters when they were in high school. Same thing with Ryan Sheckler and Danny way back in the day
This guy johnny here will make decent money I'd assume not because of competitions or how good he is(he is very good) but from this RUclips channel, he gets a lot of views so has a lot of fans so great advertisement for companies, without this channel there would be no pro deck etc
Congrats again, Jonny! I just got your deck yesterday! Can't wait to set it up!
ohhh
Don't mention it! You've been killing it for years, you really deserved it! I actually did an unboxing yesterday for it and a few other things. Anyway, take care! Keep shredding!

Congrats on the Pro Model!!!! Looks super dope! Love your vids keep up the great work! Thx for sharing!!!
thanks for watching :D
dude I rarely comment videos so please feel flattered, but Ive been watching your videos and I simply love how "fresh" your skating style is and your videos are fun to watch and congratulations on fulfilling my childhood's dream which was to become a pro skater and have my own signature board, Im sincerely happy and honestly I can tell you I feel thrilled for what you just achieved, God bless you man!
idk about that last guy that slapped you up johnny he looked like hes plottin your demise
congrats Jonny! you deserve it!
Congratz on your success, super well earned brother! And the watermelon board is AMAZING!!!
congratulations! You and Alexander are by far my favorite new age skaters! keeping innovation alive has brought me back to skateboarding after 25 years! keep it up!
That board is fucking beautiful. Congrats on your becoming pro!
way late but of all the pro's you are the one who I think deserves it most.
honest gentle kind and dedicated.
all the things a professional sports person should be and all the things that most of them are not.
you should be proud not of the sponsorship but for the role you play being a great role model for the world.
well done jonny.
congrats comrade! u r the best)
Congrats and we love unboxing vids
Switzerland is so beautiful
Congrats.
I watch all your stuff.
I've been sk8n off n on 4 20+ years now ,& I still learn from you.
Your a inspiration 2 sk8rs. Ty
Nice dude, I'm a pro too! I spray painted my name on my board.
Lmaoooo damn
yeah but you also suck and don't get paid.
+Stephen Carmickle uhhhhh people who dont take a joke
I've been following you for a while now and I really am proud to see you progress every day. And now, you are PRO! keep it up and always have fun my man. peace!
yeah thanks for watching my videos :)
congratulations on going pro dude! i love your vids they keep getting better and better! I'm definitely getting that board it looks so dope, keep up the good work bro!
You deserve it! Congratulations. Not to many people could do all the crazy trick remake videos you can do. The trick for trick, super tech stuff makes my head hurt. Entertaining.
Jonny, can you please do some vids with the Braille guys? They really need a pro like you in their vids. They're getting kinda stale.
they are in san Fransisco...
Bummer
Not even a pro is needed. Just someone with some damn personality lol
True
They have done videos with Jobby in them.
I'm so happy for him! I've never had a revive deck but I'm totally buying this one when I can. Love the skater, love the graphic - no boardslides!!
Jonny du hast deine Adresse im Video gezeigt, ist das ok oder war das ausversehen?
RUclips just recommended this to me four years later. Love your comment Johnny, it's crazy to see your big day again. Congrats again and best of luck in the future
Great vid again 👍
Congrats dood. why it took this long, I have no idea. You have obviously worked your ass off and you deserve it!
Award for tallest pile of shoes in the background of RUclips video? Anyone???
Congratulations! It must be unreal becoming pro and very pressured. Never lose sight of what you love about skating.
why the hell is Johnny giger just now pro???!!!?????
*Jonny
He has a board now
I'm saying! Way better than Doug or Aaron
I think Aaron deserves more credit, Johnny is really Tech heavy but Aaron has all his fundamentals super down, he's not the most impressive skater but hes good, he played a game of skate with Johnny and Took him SKATE to nothing
+Isaac Fox *Jonny
Jonny my first and only board when i was a young lad in Ireland had awesome H.R. Giger graphics. Big Giger fan. I loved that thing. I sucked, fell hard and stopped. Now im 40 thinking of taking it up again and I find you and your channel. Cool name and awesome vids. You're inspiring. Cheers.
HOW TO BE PART OF REVIVE TEAM
STEP 1: DO AN OLLIE
And thats all you are a pro skater, and you are in!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
yeah they are all "Professional" Park skaters
Funny, I looked up Luis Arochi skating and got zero relevant results..
jajajaja! Yeah, And they feel so famous just to receive a few free ugly boards and stickers!!! pffffffff
you know you made it big when dumb people line up to attack your achievements on youtube
i don't need "RESULTS" i just need skate and say that he is not a "PROFESSIONAL" and revive is shit
Gongrats big dog, have been at pro level for a while. The I love you too was hilarious.
I can't believe how elegant Jonny is. His movments reminds me of Mullen a little.
Mr.Burek cleaner than Mullen
congratulations m8, you definitely deserve it. I'm ready to see where your channel goes now!
I suppose it's a respectful relationship when meeting your girlfriend is an ''Appointment''.
Just arrived in Switzerland for the first time, and suddenly Jonny Giger has gone pro! Way to Go!!! so rad
Could have made 3 separate videos
1:unboxing
2:skateboard set-up
3:first day as pro
k
Huge congratulations Jonny! You completely deserve the Pro status. Keep putting out those awesome videos!
will do :)
i like the revive guys and all but how does getting views and doing tricks on a website give him a pro status ? i mean all the work the real pros go through they earned it idk how he earned this spot but congrats anyways i guess
You sure are shady :3
I completely agree shady. It's nice to have friends that support you and everything but pro status? No. If it was that easy then a ton of my homies deserve to be pro too.
if it's that easy then start a company, get to the point where you can afford to pay people and then turn your friends pro.
+Immajust Somaguya Good point! I have to say I like the name Revive better than Chocolate or Toy Box. Hahahaha
Immajust Somaguya If we are talking about the business side of things then no, that's not easy. If we are talking about the skill level of the skateboarder that turned pro, then yes this was pretty easy.
Congrats you deserve it!
This is my first comment in your channel but I have been watching your videos for a while , I am almost 40 years old, skating begginer and I really love you videos man!
I will buy your deck as soon as a 8'5 one is available on the website ;)
Cheers from Spain!
You should have really blurred out your address, people are crazy
Meh lots of even more popular youtubers have their addresses in places you can find them in case you want to send them something.
Robert Paulson Most RUclipsrs set up a POBOX, basically a proxy address so that the world doesn't know where they live.
Aaron Barratt that's a weird analogy for a P.O. box, but i just assumed they got it shipped to their house. P.O. box would make more since, but Jesse Cook 's point still stands to reason lol. Probably isn't as big of a deal if you live in switzerland.
+Jesse Cook Now THAT was funny😂to me anyways...hahaha.
Robert Paulson well not really? Any one can post to Switzerland, there is nothing stopping someone ordering 100 pizza's or 100 taxi's to his address right now.
Silent moments
Your pay back and recognition for all the hard work pain and frustration.
You diserved your name on a board,
Congrats
Being sponsored by revive hardly makes u professional
Congrats Jonny ! You shred and are very inspired. It's good to see ya pro and you've been in batb7. Well done buddy , much Love from "Next Remedy" My reggae Band based out Sacramento , CA. 🎸🎶🎵🍉🙏
pro for revive is not actually being pro, u do know that right??
hahahahaha awwww mimimimimimimiMIMIMIMIMI
okay I'm starting to see more people actually see what I see. like you aren't a pro just because your friend that has his own board company says your pro for his company...... don't let your head get too big about this jonny
He's head is not getting big,You're just making him look bad.
Plus Revive is a legit board company now. Stop hatin bruh
endres blednation Yea what are you doing with your career? you hating ass punk.
Congratulations dude, well deserved. Sick deck graphic too, Revive killing it again.
so the secret to being pro is have a mountain of skate shoes in your dining room! congrats man you really are a massive inspiration to me as a skater, and seeing you hit this landmark just brought that up to a whole new level. good job man, keep doin you.
Had to go back and see this, awesome how stoked you were looking at your boards
I'm incredibly shocked you weren't "Professional" before. You are single handedly the best flat ground skater I've ever seen and you have some of the most amazing late flips ever. Congrats Mr. Giger!!! I might snag your board when I start skating again (;
Congrats Jonny I've been watching your videos from Texas since battle at the berries pros vs. joes! Keep killing it!
Congrats Jonny! Right when I saw your pro model I bought it right away.
much deserved. love seeing crazy technical skaters succeed
Hhhhhheeeeeeellllllllll yeah jonny... congratulations man that's super sick . Deff very happy for you and you deff deserve it . Can't wait to see more from you .
I should've commented this before but I am super happy for you! Well deserved. Thanks for all the content you put out in this world for skateboarders.
that's awesome. should have never got so busy with work to where I forgot my favorite hobby
Congratulations Jonny!!! Keep doin' what you do.
You have the best personality ever, dude. Love your skating too.
So happy for you man , definitely getting your pro deck when mine needs replacing!
Gratz man. You truly earned it. You skate like a G!!!
Wish you all the best. You are a great and inspiring skater.

Most deserved and congrats again!
Congrats man on being pro! Definitely deserved it!
You can tell just how much this really meant to Jonny, so hyped that you have your name on a board after all this time! Keep up the good work
I was genuinely smiling when you took your pro model out. So much joy on your face man. Much deserved!!
Congrats boy!! your flat ground tricks are on point!!
love your vids you have a very chill vibe and accent. Guys like you got me skating again
Congratulations Jonny, you're one of my favorite skaters and a solid motivator for my skating. It would be tight to see more trick tips(harder flat ground stuff) from you and also trick challenges.
Congrats brotha! Mad happy for you! My fave on revive! You have mad skillz bro!! Keep it up man you rock!!
Damn johnny. You're such a genuine guy and deserve to be pro. You earned it
