Was wondering when Beans was going to finally make it up here. Glad to say that you more than made up for the lost time with this one.

RIP

I saw him skate when he toured the UK in '97/'98 with Childress and Navarette . Live, his casual gnarliness was even more impressive, he skated the park like he was a local. Rad. RIP.

I miss this guy, he was in a league of his own, saw him at a demo once in I think it was los Gatos and he ripped so hard and was super nice. R.I.P.

P.s. great split part with Ron Whaley back in the day that I really enjoyed.

A real good friend, and a amazing human being. Today marks 11 years since we lost Tim. You are missed my friend.

One of the first and few pros that came through Indianapolis when I was coming up. Really blew my mind how hard he ripped, and made it it look so easy. Always think about him on mothers day. RIP.

Tim was the best! I went on tour with him in 1998. AWH Distribution's "Stars and Bars" tour, it was bad ass. Raw skating and raw drinking.

I always loved how Tim would refuse to bail, he always knew how to keep the ride going.

Rip In Peace!
