Death

As I hear the word "death" rapidly comes to my head Andy Irons. He was an APS (Association of Surfing Professionals) surfer which was a very successful competitor, wining various world titles and many events. He was a big idol to me since I was really small because to him surfing was literally everything and he had this unique style of surfing so consistent that I couldn't believe. As the 2010 ASP World Tour came to a beginning, they announced the 2010 Rip Curl Pro at Middles Beach, Isabela, Puerto Rico and I was so stoked to think that I would now see all these surfers in front of me. The contest window started on Oct. 30, but as no waves showed up it was delayed. But, on November 2nd, 2010 Andy Irons was found lying dead on his bed on a hotel. People say that dengue killed him, others that he had a terrible ill, but autopsy showed that he had been using various drugs that combined could turn out to be lethal. That was a big turn and disaster for the surfing history, because Andy at that time was at the top 3 surfers, he also had his wife, Lyndie, pregnant with 7 months and their child was born the opening day of the final contest of the 2010 World Tour. So the death of Andy Irons was no joke to the surfing industry. Even in Hawaii they have the Andy Irons Day so you could imagine what a big figure this surfer was for them.
