Jake Phelps, editor-in-chief of Thrasher, 56. Apparently he "died suddenly and easy", which I guess is something.

"Suddenly and easy" is a really strange phrase I've never heard before. "Suddenly," yes. "Peacefully," sure. "Easy?"

Yeah, it's weird. But not such a terrible way to go?

I don’t know to what extent people outside the skateboarding world know Jake Phelps, but it’s impossible to understate his importance to skateboarding. He brought a larger than life influence to a huge culture, and was instrumental to its development since its adolescence. A week ago I bought a back issue of the first issue of Thrasher I ever had, and it was poignant to reflect on the significance that magazine had at a formative time. All that’s to say I’m shocked and saddened by that news and feel compelled to write this out to feel more grounded. R.I.P.

Sad to hear about Frankie, RIP.Hadn’t heard of Michael Wycoff, but in things you were shockingly old when you learned: Zhané’s “Hey Mr DJ” is based in large part on “Looking Up To You”, so RIP Michael as well.
