He struggled through many challenges, but it seemed as though he had found peace. He was on a surfing trip when he died. RIP JayBoy. And flights of angels sing you to your rest.
I'm just tryin to get by, being quiet and shy, in a world full of pushin and shove

Jay Adams' profile segment from Dogtown & Z Boys. I'd love to post the Del Mar '75 contest footage from the movie where the Zephyr team blew minds by showcasing their surf style but it looks like everything that's on YouTube is either incomplete, is filmed off of a TV screen and/or has been dubbed over. I did find a short silent clip from Jay's session though.
