Jay Adams., youngest member of the notorius Zephyr skate team the Z-Boys, died at age 53 while enjoying a long surf trip in Puerto Escondido with wife and friends. He was the epitome of rad. "I always skate for the love of it, the feeling that is like nothing else. Doing the thing I did, that some people after the fact look back and say it was so progressive and pushed the limits, that's cool but I wasn't thinking doing that. I just acted spontaneously and did stuff, see what happens and hope not to get hurt. I wouldn't think about it until afterwards, if at all. Style was a motivator at times, but honestly it just came naturally to me, and although it meant everything at times, who's to say the kook with horrible style isn't having more fun than you? Having fun is what really matters in the end, unless you're just out to impress others." May you shred forever!
