The skateboarding community has “come together like never before” following the tragic death of young skateboarding phenom Dylan Rieder.
At the age of 28, Rieder passed away Wednesday afternoon in California after a two year long battle with Leukemia—prompting model and skateboarding friends like Cara Delevingne, Ryan Sheckler and Tony Hawk to offer their condolences.
“He had style and grace that most of us can only wish for,” legend Tony Hawk tells PEOPLE of the beloved skater.
