Awful news, died overnight in a snowmobile (not snowboarding, sorry) accident.
Absolutely loved his Hoonigan stuff, the Pikes Peak challenges, Rally Cross, and those awesome car builds.
RIP.

Dayum!
That's tragic.
Looks like it was actually a snowmobile accident reading the reports and not a snowboarding accident.
nonetheless, still pretty tragic.

Sad news, always uplifting to watch his stuff on YouTube.
Sounds like he went out doing something loved doing. We all can ask for nothing less.

Some of you may enjoy this.
For me just some of the highlights, drifting rear over the pier, popping and banging mid air in the Focus, all of the Escort Cossie, the accuracy in the Shamrock and the total for the camera shot @ 10:30
