Keith was the embodiment of raw East Coast power. His pop, style, and speed influenced the 90s generation and beyond. His skate career had no end in sight. He was a global icon. As a veteran on Real and with his own brand HUF, he mentored some of the greatest skaters of our time. Keith, you will be a part of skateboarding forever. Thank you and rest in peace.—TWS

Words escape us, and they will never be enough. Anything written could never truly describe how much your friendship, influence, everything you did – means to so many people. You created a blueprint for how it should be done, with power, grace, and respect. You showed us that anything could be accomplished if you put your heart and effort into it. You were a true friend, mentor, and inspiration. There will never be a day you’re not with us, in our hearts and thoughts. Forever. We Love You.
