Not a wakeboarder but thought some on here might not know about this very sad news. These freestyle MXers really put it all on the line. Prayers to the family and friends.

I didn't realize I was in the boats forum. Can someone move this to the general forum?

Man that sux.... Death is never a good thing, but at least he was doing what he loved.

LOL... I just dont get the saying "at least he died doing what he loved".. I'd MUCH rather fall over and drop dead while doing something I completely despise... LIKE MY TAXES!

its a sad deal. anyone that has been involved in any type of serious motocross activities know how little it takes to have so much taken away. one second your on top of your game and then the next it can all be over. My thoughts go out to his family.

Wow, im blown away, Ryans right, it takes one split second for something to go wrong. Makes me tear up knowing a fellow rider is down. RIP Jeremy. My thoughts go out to his family.

From an old worn out MX guy..,,

They put it on the line at every show.....it is just amazing what they can do on a bike.

I am surprised (and happy) there aren't more of these types of accidents.

Godspeed Jeremy..
