Van Wastell passes away: 1984 - 2008 RIP

Another shock and piece of bad news for us all – Van Wastell, a very talented young skater passed away at the age of 24 (1984-2008). After just turning pro as well…we’ll leave the rumours out of this story and send our condolences out to his family. This is a tragic loss for the skateboard community. RIP Van.

This can show us all that we have to enjoy every moment possible. Even though I’m feeling tired today and down because of this news, I’ll make sure to get to the skate park today to enjoy what I love to do the most – skate. Do a trick for Van Wastell today.
