It was an early, tragic exit that affected the surf world in profound and polarizing ways. From pain to anger to grief to repair, surfing has navigated a spectrum of emotions. In that time, we've heard many reflections on the loss of a three-time World Champion, a friend, and an expecting father. Today, we offer three perspectives to reflect on our collective loss as well as what's changed in surf culture since.
- [Andy Irons: A Lion](https://www.theinertia.com/point-counterpoint/andy-irons-reflecting-on-loss-three-years-later/andy-irons-a-lion/) - Andy Irons killed God (aka Kelly Slater)...from 2002 - 2005. He was a lion. I'm privileged to have known him.

First, still, there's this pretty good-sized hole blown into the sport, just the tragedy and loss. It's healing, but still there.

And the Dream Tour, locked into the same venues and same dates (save The Search) year after year, unfortunately grew stale.
- [A Fan's Perspective](https://www.theinertia.com/point-counterpoint/is-the-asps-metropolitan-shift-a-good-or-bad-thing/a-fans-perspective/) - I have surfed Long Island more times than most of the people involved with the Quiksilver Pro New York combined.
