After reading my story about my multiole chronic illnesses, he and DD came to my rescue. They contacted some friends and I am on a more holistic approach that started with Sierrasil, thenks to JB and DD. So now after 3 years, I am in remission and trying to ween off of all traditional medicines possible. I am a long time snowboarder and skateboarder that was stopped dead in her tracks. LIterallY! Thanks for your help and compassion Jake. You are the best! I have been on a skate 4 x lately and plan to ride snow this year, fingers crossed!

The arena shook with a deafening roar upon Jake's landing of the 720. Five seconds later...complete silence, everyone thought they'd witnessed skateboarding's first "death by competition." But no, the tough little fucker from OZ came through to live another day. Yeah Jake!</p> <p>You can expect ESPN to highlight this world famous slam beginning next week.</p> I was there at LA’s Staples Center that night and honestly, it was completely surreal.

What happened? There was so much coverage of the fall but none on the actual death? What kind of culture have we become. Has a memorial fund been set up?</p> I can’t believe he’s dead! What happened?
