JEREMY LUSK – 1984 – 2009

Friend, Husband, Son, Hero and FMX star Jeremy Lusk died early in the morning on Tuesday, Feb. 10 from head injuries he suffered at an FMX event in Costa Rica on Saturday, Feb. 7. Lusk under-rotated a Hart Attack Backflip and slammed head-first to the dirt. Like the fighter and Pitbull he was, Jeremy survived an initial surgery late in the evening on Saturday that was designed to stem brain swelling, even though his odds of living through the surgery were slim to none. But his condition, touch and go from the moment he went down, worsened late in the day on Monday and ultimately took his young life.

He was surrounded by his loving Mother and father, Chuck & Gina Lusk, his wonderful wife Lauren, his mother and father in law Lyne & Larry along with his closest Mulisha friends Brian Deegan, Ryan Hagy, Cameron Steele & Erik Apple. He is now at peace and performing his sick tricks for all those in Heaven to crowds greater than we have ever seen or could even imagine.

He did his best to live life to its fullest and entertain people all over the world, and for that his many fans are deeply appreciative. All the warm thoughts, comments and support are comforting in these times. Please keep his Family and Friends in your thoughts and prayers.

Thanks for all the memories! We will miss you Pitbull... your legacy will live on forever.

We are proud to call you a friend and to have you as a member of our Family... Always and Forever.

Love and Respect,
SKULLCANDY Family
