This week we had to say goodbye to one of the most exciting young skaters in recent memory. Take a second to appreciate the life of the LA kid who had everybody talking. RIP, Vincent.

Southwest legend and friend to all who crossed his path, Twig sadly had his time cut short. Take a trip back to the better days with his last full part along with some kind words of remembrance. 

Jon was a pioneering champion for disabled skaters and practically made his invisible with an attitude and attack on the board true to his Texas roots. He knew there were others in way worse situations. Glad to have had some great sessions with you. Our deepest condolences to the Comer family. –Sam Hitz

On August 9th, 2019 we lost a true legend. He not only inspired me when I first met him, he inspired the world with his amazing talent. –Rudy Johnson

It’s important to the Raemers family that people know Ben's cause of death. In his sister's words, “If the tragedy of losing my Benny can save others then that’s a positive."

My friend Roger Mark Hubbard died June 8, 2018. Talk about skateboard legends, this dude saw his destiny. Marty was a true skateboard pioneer. Talk about doing it yourself, this dude did it all. He’s gone but his legend will live forever. I miss him, and there ain’t nobody like him. Once again, rest in peace. Roger Mark Hubbard 1970-2018.–Jake Phelps

Born to ride a skateboard? It’s a seemingly silly concept when you think about it, but Dylan Rieder made us believe it. That man was absolutely, positively, a gift. Power, style, grace - he had it all. Our thoughts are with his family and friends in this difficult time. Rest in Peace, Dylan Rieder. We will all miss you, each day more than the next.
