<VIDEO>

A couple of Josh's friends have collected some video, which I'd like to share with you here.

A huge, heartfelt thank you to Joe Blum and Benji Meyer who put together <this video> of Josh. It's a beautiful piece that captures how graceful Josh was, how at peace he could be when he was skating.

(You'll need Quicktime to view it, which you can download <here>.)

Josh's friend Brian Cohen took these videos at Venice Beach. I can almost hear him cussing when he doesn't land the trick. So much for peaceful :)
