Another loss today... RIP Jay Adams. Most people probably dont know who Jay was but he was a great skater and a truly inspiring person. He represented the love of the sport not the fame or the money. Anyone who has any interest in skating should check out this film about him and the Z boys. https://youtube/watch?v=E0K6lUm5ynw Also this quote is one of my favorites and is relevant to any sport, not just skating. 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, thats cool but I wasnt thinking doing that. I just acted spontaneously and did stuff, see what happens and hope not to get hurt. I wouldnt 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, whos to say the kook with horrible style isnt having more fun than you? Having fun is what really matters in the end, unless youre just out to impress others. -Jay Adams
