On the 28th of August 2013, Matt Doust past away in his Downtown apartment in Los Angeles, only 10 days before the opening of his debut solo show in the United States.
Matt was a talented skateboarder, writer and artist. He was also my best friend.
I began filming Matt skateboarding when we were 14 and went on to document his life until he was tragically from us one week after his 29th birthday.
This video consists of some of the footage we filmed together from 2002-2005.
Rest in Peace friend, it was an awesome journey!
