There was no wire. Clark's planet needed him.
 Note: Clark Hassler died on the way back to his home planet.

Nice of you to share this, Blurst. He's a good guy, has given a lot to skateboarding and it looks like he has a lot of people who care about him. Hope he caught it relatively early.

kevin wrote the first skate book i ever read. gonna throw in, fuck cancer.

such a strange coincidence, my mom was telling me she wanted to try and understand skating a little bit yesterday on the phone, I told her to go in my storage and find Kevin's book. Still the best of its kind to this day. I wish him the best.

What book is this?
Is there any money in skateboarding film anymore?
I dunno about money, but the fun is boomin.

I am 29 years old and have never lost a close family member until a month ago when my Grandpa died from prostate Cancer. Hopefully after I start my new job next week I can throw a little cash his way. Cancer sucks and if there is a god (which I don't believe there is), he is a scumbag for allowing to happen!

Looks like Kevin is still dealing with this cancer situation. I'm sure any support would be appreciated. He has taken over the updates section of his GoFundMe so if you enjoy his writing, there's an opportunity to read material from him (and support).
