A one-of-a-kind dude is gone too soon. Aloha my friend.

Here is a cool article if you didn't have the privilege of knowing him.

I was right.

I think I skated in a contest against Matt long ago in Port Orange. I didn't have the home park advantage, and the result showed it, to say the least.

Good article at the link; brings back memories, but haven't finished reading the whole thing yet.

Cancer battle?

Melanoma I believe.

It's a sad reminder that those of us who are surfing lifers need to take our skin care seriously. The dermatologist is our friend.

-------------------------
I was right.

I've got a new bump on my wrist. A easily sun exposed spot.

Probably Squamous from my experience. I've already had a couple cut out. Gonna get it checked out soon.

Yes, keep tabs on your skin.
