Last week, the entire skateboarding community found themselves mourning the untimely death of Erik Stricker, editor of Transworld SKATEboard, who passed away early last week.
Stricker joined the Transworld SKATEboard family in 2002 where he quickly made a name for himself as an incredibly hard worker and devoted friend. His passion for skateboarding came through every page of the magazine, and his love for his friends and family was truly admirable.
Eric will be sorely missed. We have his family and friends in our thoughts.
