True Story: Finished an epic day at Squamish and was just hanging out waiting for my friends when this big Kiwi dude starts talking with me. He is the most friendly dude ever and we start talking about all kinds of stuff, he even recognizes where I'm from (small town in Northern Ontario). He offers me a beer and we talk some more, not until our second beer do I figure out who he is; Kelly Mcgarry. After a great end to the day him and his crew are heading out and he is even concerned that my buds aren't around yet but it's all good and they roll out. Next day I'm at the lift at Whiss and I hear someone call my name its the same big Kiwi dude asking if I made out ok the night before. Kelly was one of the nicest guys I ever met inside or outside of riding no question. This was all before the Canyon Gap Flip and other big moments from Mcgazza and I always wish I could have seen him again and congratulated him on all that he accomplished. Would have loved to have a couple more beers with him, this time on me. Very choked to see such an amazing dude pass, a true loss to the world not just the riding community. My most sincerest condolences to his close friends and family. Ride on you magnificent fellow.
