Growing up in Gallup, New Mexico, Jerome grappled with shyness and the challenge of expressing both his Navajo heritage and his passions—an internal struggle shaped by the broader historical forces that have long marginalized Native Americans, pushing them to conceal their cultural identities. Skateboarding became his unexpected lifeline, a way to navigate life’s obstacles and break free from his shell. As he honed his skills, Jerome channeled his energy into creating Dalone Skateboards, a brand born from his journey of self-discovery and resilience. His boards carry the spirit of his culture, standing as both a tribute to his roots and a defiant call for others to embrace their identities in a world that has long sought to silence them.
