This is terrible. I remember him well and watched him and his career grow.

This is very sad news.  I too understand depression, having been there in the past, and understand what a difficult (and lonely) place it can be.

 He was a giant in the bmx world and X games realm. Gone too soon. Thanks for all the memories and jumps  :salute:

Can't believe I'm just now learning of this  :(

RIP Dave.  I watched this man do some unbelievable things on his bike.
