R.I.P Jeff Grosso.

Heavy duty charger that bonked airs and stalled inverts like no other.

Condolences to friends and family.

Last photo, I'm the guy in grey on the deck by the shallow end.

He was such a powerhouse. This is a tremendous loss to our world, but especially Oliver's.

Thanks for the memory, Slob.



First photo i'm a micro inch out of the camera shot—his tail sailed right past my face. Such a powerful skater. Nice fast bowl too!

You should have came over and introduced yourself, brother.

Still can't believe he's gone.

That was December 2004, before I signed up on S&B. The next day my daughter was born and the next week I broke my femur at the Vans Park. I threw that complete in the closet and never rode it again, still have it. Grosso was hyped on it because it was a shaped board with rails. He picked it up and examined it closely. Whenever I would see him around he would comment on my set up. Last time I skated with him at the Combi in 2012, he walked up - picked up my board and said "right on, Bellmar made this"

Okay, that's a good excuse. LOL!

VERY COOL. He gave my full size Red Cross Olson w/ OG Thunders modded with 9mm axles, Blackholes, Rockets and Shivs n Shanks rails a look over too. He just went "hmmm" in a cave man like voice. LOL!

He will be missed.

RIP Jeff Grosso
He gave so much to skateboarding and will be sorely missed.
100% Skateboarder.

I've been watching his clips of his kid on his Insta page and he was so enthusiastic. He had so much to live for.

Looks like Oliver has taken over his IG account. He's getting tons of love. Awesome to see the support.
