 So proud of the tribe right now. If I die shredding a trail with my closest friends around me... that the way I'd want to go if it had to happen. RIP Will, in dying you showed us all how to live.

 That was an incredible episode and tribute. I didn't know him but I think everyone is connected to him because he was passionate about this sport as we all are. At the very minimum, we can all relate to that joy we feel ripping through the woods on a beautiful piece of single track. By the sounds of it he was a tremendous person who positively influenced a lot of people and its unfortunate that it seems were losing a few too many of these kinds of people so often lately.

 I didn't know him either but, in my mind, he's any of us...myself included. Of course he had his own individual traits like any of us, but he was no different than you, I or anyone that is passionate for riding. Life without a bike is an all out risk-fest. Add the bike and it multiplies exponentially. But, damn if that risk isn't worth it!! 139 FOREVER

 People always talk about the money and sponsorship Red Bull brings to this amazing sport, but I believe it's things like this, a tribute so touching and perfectly done that shows Red Bull's true commitment to this sport. Bravo Curtis Keene. Bravo Red Bull. RIP Will

 Very sad to see Will go. Even though we only talked a couple times on instagram, it made me cry still when I heard about his death. Very sad. Rest in peace man.
