RIP Jeremy Lusk

It is with great sadness that we report Jeremy Lusk succumbed to his injures tonight at 11:03pm PST. He was surrounded by his loving Mother and father, Chuck & Gina Lusk, his wonderful wife Lauren, his mother and father in law Lyne & Larry along with his closest Mulisha friends Brian Deegan, Ryan Hagy, Cameron Steele & Erik Apple. He is now with our Heavenly Father and is at peace. We know he is performing sick tricks for all those in Heaven to crowds greater than we have ever seen. We will miss you Pitbull!

Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

We will provide further updates on arrangements when we get them.

Here is a brief tribute video that a fan put together. Jeremy will be sorely missed.

Jeremy Lusk fundraiser/OTP 5 video premier
Oakley and Monster Energy are throwing a video premier for On The Pipe 5 this wednesday the 11th. it is FREE! it is also going to be a fundraiser for Jeremy to help for the cost to get him back home.

Tomorrow

Hey everyone. Will probably be a little quiet tonight. Last we heard they plan to start weaning him off meds in the morning. So keep the prayers up. This is a critical time. Jeremy is a Pitbull and a fighter. Everyones prayers, thoughts, encouragements and comments are helping more than you can imagine. 

Pray for the swelling to go down, doctors who are anointed with knowledge of what to do, strength for the family and no permanent damage to any part of his body.
