News spread yesterday across the skateboard world of another fallen soldier.
Jaya Bonderov, R.I.P.
I believe I met and skated with him during the first Warped Tour (his name was spelled incorrectly on the flyer) and he was really chill and had a great vibe to skate around. Our condolences go out to his friends and family.
