this better just be a sick joke

Its not gonna be a sick joke people don't just do that. Bummed

well either he actually died, or he quit, and they got mad and made that

yeah their mad at him but he's forever in their hearts...


RIP Wastell

RIP

I doubt anyone would be that petty, I don't see how someone would figure that as an option, that sucks

I'm seriously bummed right now

I hear he commited suicide.
RIP

Dang, I wonder how he died.

Holy fucking shit.

Toooo sad. He had such a future ahead of him after just going pro and everything.
R.I.P.

well i was just trying to think of another reason why they would put that up their other than the fact he died, sometimes companys make stupid decisions and do wierd stuff


this sucks though.

R.I.P

damn, that sucks
RIP

I heard from he fell out of a window in Germany.

Where did you hear this?

Sam Muller.

Damn, RIP. I liked his Flannels too.

Damn, wtf. RIP. I was getting psyched to see him skate with the Matix crew when they rolled through KCDC too.

didnt die though

r.i.p van, r.i.p

I cannot fucking sleep. the last 20 minutes has felt like a whole hour

Wow, RIP Van Wastell.

2 months back Van, Trapasso, Ramirez, and somebody else came with Vans to Baton Rouge and had a few of my friends bring them to skate around the city.
I wish I could have been there.

At least Van seemed to enjoy himself skateboarding, you got to respect him for that.

I feel dumb because I've never heard of this dude. I guess I am not that current.

I do not want to believe this. Right after he went pro?

^^didnt go pro, was going to this month

tell me if im wrong but i think he was about to go pro this month

wtf dude. this is crazy. he just turned pro too.

R.I.P.

I think you're officially pro once it's announced which it has. So he made it.

Terrible news. I remembered him from my 2003 am issue. I dug it up for the occasion.

"Ever since I've met him, he's been way too buttery. He's just real calm and he's got tons of pop. It's funny because a couple of years ago he wasn't even concerned with getting sponsored. [laughs] He would do stuff like hike in the woods by himself after school. Then one day it clicked in him that he wanted to go for it, and now he's just blowing up." - Paul Rodriguez

RIP Van Wastell. A true shredder.

i am beyond sad.

i have grown up with van my whole life and skated the park with him less than a week ago....

i dont want to believe this.

I hate this thread.


I wish it never had to been posted.

daaaaamn
he fucken ripped

R.I.P.

and i was thinking it was a sick joke or something too cause his Behind the Griptape just came out, but thatd be way too fucked up to joke around about

fuck...

damn man....

his logic part was so sick

Hi i´m from germany, a filmer from berlin just gave us some information:
He is/was touriuide for the vans team during their stay in Berlin. Van asked him for painkillers, after a couple of slams on his hip, plus he had a jetlag and some additional pain because of his once broken arm ( i think because of this arm wrestling thing, you might know from his joe krolick part). Anyhow they got him some painkiller-gel, but he still wanted to find a hospital. He spend the rest of the day drinking some beers, weed not excluded... Then it must have been happened...

Damn i liked his skating so much... RIP

man that sucks, he was sick

So fucking bummed. I loved his part in Krooked Khronicles and was really hyped to finally hear about him turning pro. I can't believe this...

RIP.
