kblyn Feb 27, 23:44 we should all wish to be so loved in life and missed in death, you don't really die if you live on in the hearts of others ~carry Harold on ~pay it forward

andrew roussell Feb 27, 23:42 damn what a loss of a pure good dude rest in peace harold

Alex Dymond Feb 27, 23:39 "You seen me in that movie Kids?" Yeah Harold, we all saw you in the movies, skate videos, tv shows, clubs, streets... Skating, braking, joking, entertaining, snapping, laughing... But what I treasure the most, is a slightly different side. My vision of you was the sweet kid telling me stories about your mother. The kind person, (one of a kind) who loved animals, especially dogs. I respect how you didn't judge people harshly. (And if you did it was for a good reason.) You were friends of all walks and rolls of life, (walking places with you was next to impossible, always bumping into someone you knew.) Well Harold, until I bump into you again and you greet me with a list of all your recent accomplishments. (And we can go back and forth about females in our life.) I will be waiting to hear what you have been up to and I will be proud of you as always! Peace Harold. Let the real name echo forever. Unlimited love. Harold Hunter, Legends Never Die!

christine c. Feb 27, 23:09 I have been reading these entries for days trying to cope with the shock and the sadness. I couldn't think of what I wanted to say. So many people have shared so many great stories and memories and it has helped to read this and share these. Harold lived life to the fullest and loved people everywhere and now he is shining down on us from heaven. Up there laghing, skating, joking.... probably eating chicken wings, and rappin' to girls. I have so many great memories of Harold-stories and Harold -quotes... I think everyone has at least one quote that will make them laugh out loud always. Dave... get that Harold quotes book made! LEGENDS NEVER DIE. RIP.We'll never forget you, 'Ro!!!!! Thank you for opening your heart and life to me and everyone you ever met.

SCHZA Feb 27, 23:06 harold, harold, harold. it is clear by all of these submissions that your magic touched and inspired many. I knew it, of course, and i am very happy that so many different people from so far around the world can see it, and can feel it, and have seen it, and have felt it. it is very real. the harold touch. you are gone, but your energy and spirit remain with us. it is unanimously undeniable. all i can add to all of these kind (and accurate) words are just my gratitude for having known you so well, the unforgettable times we have shared, and for all that you have taught me - about life and about myself. we will all make sure that your legend never dies.

Phil Feb 27, 21:48 You were always a breath of fresh air. New York City and skateboarding will miss you forever. Thank you so much.

CARL 2DVS Feb 27, 21:44 FOES ,MIKE & FAMILY, I was sorry to learn of Harolds death, and I wanted to express my sympathy to you and your family on behalf of the Me & mine. Your bro was a wonderful friend of many, and we greatly benefited from his time with us. Please accept my condolences at this difficult time. Harold was a remarkable man, and he made a difference in the lives of many people in this city and in the world.

jordaan Feb 27, 21:40 rip harold... you were a legend... you lived your life well, take care

Joseline D Feb 27, 21:39 He is and will always be a part of my New York history. I used to go to raves, hang out at Liquid Sky when Chloe S. still wroked there. Walking up and down Lafayette, you'd always thrill at the sound of skateboard wheels. He was funny, light-hearted and flirty with the ladies. I remember him sandwiched between me and Justine D. His arms confidently thrown around our shoulders proclaiming we had 'heart-shaped lips'. My heart goes out to you and your family. I hope you find peace in Heaven. Everyone's praying for you.

Wes Feb 27, 21:39 I couldn't realy believe that he has passed. I wasn't that big of a fan, but from what I saw he could take a bad situation and turn it in to a joke. Anyways rest in peace and of course "Legends Never Die".

Shanas Family Feb 27, 21:25 We are so saddened to hear of Harold's passing. Thank you for all the laughs and skating. The influence you had on our youth and we will never forget the positive. Jah has taken you to a better place....enjoy our brother.. LOVE- Jim, Tammy, Sophie and Porter the Shanas Family

D Feb 27, 21:05 Respect form the U.K. A celebration of life. Harold, you're a legend.

Raj Mehra Feb 27, 20:59 My first memory of Harold Hunter was from old skatevids in the early 90's ... I used to watch them and rewatch them religiously as a kid! Now i haven't seen this video for over 10 years, but I remember very well that when Harold dropped his first "411 rookies" part to the shookones anthem, i was shook! After that i would see him in Zoo York movies and other east coast movies... I respected his skating along with others in the whole east coast movement... It helped shape the skater i became. Who knew that in 2001 that i would be working and hanging out with this NYC legend! For the last 5 years i got to know Harold and everytime we went on tour or hung out, it was never enough... Harold Hunter is one of the most magnetic and hilarious guys i know... i would tell people that he was the black version of Robin Williams... mad jokes, mad impressions, and very abstract!!! I love this guy and rather than be sad, i think harold would want us to keep our heads high and celebrate his great life... Harold you truly are one of a kind and a true international legend... My heart goes out to your family and friends... YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

shay sowden Feb 27, 20:51 r.i.p. harold. only the good die young.

shay sowden Feb 27, 20:50 r.i.p. harold. only the good die young.

Nicole Collette Feb 27, 20:49 Why do the good die young?

Eli Gesner Feb 27, 20:41 P.S. And while you're out there, try to love everyone as much as Harold did. I dare you!

Ras Rafael Feb 27, 20:41 um...like man I just found this out, and I wasn't sure if it was for real, right? but it is. I never met Harold, but his skating has influenced me ever since I stepped on a board. Like, man you know his style was the all the shiz in the block, whether it was up where i used to stay in tha northeast(you knew he ruled it there) to down here in FL where I'm at now. I'll miss him and anyone who knows him or of him, will miss the Great O.G. Thanks for being the craziest and influencing other loonies!

Eli Gesner Feb 27, 20:41 The Drug Game. Look everyone. It's really sad that people use this truly inspirational mans death to preach against drugs. The fact that all of us are here in heart felt love for this guy is because he was a man who experienced life to the fullest. What ever that was. Harold could of died at any time for any amount of reasons. He could of been crushed under the truck skating with Pete back in the day. He could of dies hundreds of times skating. I'm surprised some angry boy friend didn't hunt Harold down for fucking his girl. Harold did a lot of stupid things. But we all do! All the skaters here. All the graffiti writers here. All the people who hustle on the street. All the girls who 'knew' him. All the people who partied with Harold. Drugs are NOT the point. EXPERIENCING LIFE TO THE FULLEST IS THE POINT. And harold did it with an unyielding fearlessness I will never see in anyone else. He did it skating. He did it in making everyone else laugh and smile. And he did it in reaching out to people. None of us would ever be so care free in letting people into our lives. In giving strangers a chance. In just being genuinely open and interested in our fellow man. No matter who they were or where they were from. THAT IS WHY THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE HERE GRIEVING FOR THIS LOSS. It all comes from the same place. From the mind and the heart of Harold Hunter. If life put it in front of Harold, he was going to eat three portions and wrap up the rest in a napkin for later. THAT IS THE POINT. Frequently in life, the things that are most satisfying are also the things that are most dangerous. Skating, fucking, drinking, drugs, and driving a car fast can all kill you. You don't drive 125 miles per hour, take your hands off the wheel, and climb into the back seat. Chances are you'll die. The same goes for skating, sky diving, sex, snorkeling, Saki, Mayonnaise sandwiches, smoking, slippery showers, Sharks, and not looking both ways when crossing the street! Fuck drugs, there's a whole world out there that can kill you. But there's also a whole world out there for you to experience and enjoy! You see how much living Harold squeezed into 31 years? I suggest we all do the same. It's your life. And it's in your hands. Literally! So don't be stupid! And by that I mean get out there, live your life like Harold, and eat up everything the world has to offer. And take some in a napkin for later.

Feb 27, 19:47 a real nyc soul-jah!! every good party must come to an end we carry you in in our hearts our friend!!

mick Feb 27, 19:36 Never met him and I stay in a different continent. What I can say is that he'll be missed by alot of people. I'll bet he's chaffing a blunt up in th sky.

Danimal Feb 27, 19:01 There is not much to say in a time like this but I used to watch Harold skate at demos growing up. Over a decade later, I ran into to Harold on 8th street in the lower east side. After all the inspiration I've taken from him I felt that it was necessary to say whats up. He couldn't have been cooler about some random kid approaching him on the street. But I gave him my respects and he even said he recognized me from back in the day at those demos in Jersey and skating around the city growing up. By no means was Harold a close friend and I can't tell you I even believed him when he said he remembered me, but he was glad to hear that over a decade later I was still skating. He told me he wasn't skating as much as he used to but it would never die in him. He told me to look out for him when I move back to NYC and maybe we could skate. People like Harold paved the way for city skaters today... much love and respect. R.I.P. Harold... legends never die. We'll skate together on the other side!

mick Feb 27, 18:56 Never met him and I stay in a different continent. What I can say is that he'll be missed by alot of people. I'll bet he's chaffing a blunt up in th sky.

Juan aka JAM Feb 27, 18:55 I just wanted to say with all do respect that HH was with out a doudt one of the best things on TV. You will be missed my brada from another mother. Some day all Sk8ers will unite. God Bless.

zaq Feb 27, 18:39 hey was the shit

Mike Feb 27, 18:22 The world will never be the same without you, Harold. Thank you for being you. Much love and respect.

Justin @ DQM Feb 27, 18:21 Here is a quote that defines what made harold so special, because he always was being; himself. Almost anybody can learn to think or believe or know, but not single human being can be taught to be. Why? Because whenever you think or you believe or you know, you are alot of other people: but the moment you are being, you're nobody but yourself. To be nobody but yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you everybody else-means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting. Does this sound dismal? It isn't It's the most wonderful life on earth. -e.e. cummings

Joe Feb 27, 18:16 man this s horrible R.I.P there is good news and bad news the bad harold is gone but we have all his funny memories from skate maps the good news everyone knows heaven is one big half pipe R.I.P

Trevor Gonzales Feb 27, 17:53 I think that if it wasnet for harold that the zoo team wouldnt be the same. But may his soul R.I.P.

yuko Feb 27, 17:47 I will miss you, Harold. He was one of the sweetest and funniest person I ever know. It was always a pleasure to see him. Thank you for great memories, Harold. I will never forget your great smile. You will always be missed - rest in peace.

Laala Feb 27, 17:36 Man, I can't believe you've crossed over Harold. I hadn't seen you in a minute but it could be years between our recent sitings and it felt like yesterday (I mean the good ole days in 1991-98 when the Vill was still the Vill) when we would hang at the old cube and Washington Square Park. First Justin and now you. Damn. I know you're in a better place, watching over us with your GREAT SMILE. RIP to the fam and everyone else that loved and liked Harold. I miss your great vibe.

Christa Feb 27, 17:04 RIP.... Great skater! Great guy! You are a legend, Harold!

BRENDA & NAISHA Feb 27, 16:57 What a loss, your life cut so short just when it was getting started. Harold had so many dreams and aspirations for the future. I cannot believe you are gone. I remember when Harold, me and Naisha would just go club hopping, boosting, pull store pranks all in one day. Ronald was mad cool too and Michael was a lil bay boy. Those were the good old days. I always looked forward to our long conversations. Harold always remained himself in front of anybody. And he even came to Bed-Stuy/Bushwick numerous times to chill with us like a real thorough-bred that he was......Rest In Peace my nigga..We Love You..Love Brenda....

fred bear Feb 27, 16:50 I was at the local skate park yesterday, and I was greeted by an old friend I hadn`t seen in months. He informed me about the death. It was sad to hear, and he will be missed. RIP Harold. After we skated, I went home and watched Harold`s Rookies section in an old 411 from 1995. Going on 11 years pro, never forget! Cruise in the name of Harold for life! Canada loves you my friend

Scott Furkay Feb 27, 16:42 Harold was such an amazing soul... ive known him for a long time now... he took me under his wing and showed me the world of NYC's highest & lowest society with a big smile on his face always. he was such an easy-going kid and was always looking at everything with an optomistic perspective. no matter how down a situation seemed, he would always pick out the smallest aspect that was positive and would run with it. he tought me to always do that, and it has made me a much happier person... i owe so much to this kid & will be forever greatful to his warm heart. he would always tell me... "its nothin man, you my hommie, i know youd do the same fo' me yo" and he was right. id have done anything for that kid. may he rest forever in peace, doing backside 360's up in heaven with Keenan & sippin Jack&Coke's with Biggie & Pac. ? "Legends Neva Die Yo."

Not a day goes by without you being in my thoughts and prayers. Show everybody how to party and skate up there. RIP Harold, NYC Downtown Allstar......

Liz Menscer Feb 27, 13:39 A dark cloud has hung over me since I heard the news. Disbelief and sorrow at losing such an unforgettable friend. Reading the message boards and reminiscing. Going to the wake and seeing all his boys- those strong, tough nyc men who seem unbreakable - in tears broken easily by this loss- left my heart aching. And yesterday when reading this page- again reading all the words, the tears started coming and I just couldn’t get them to stop. But- they weren’t tears of sadness- they were from an absolute awe of the life and legacy of Harold Hunter. I started to see the big picture- the storyline of his life. The amazement of how many lives he touched- how many hearts he filled- how much laughter he brought to all of us. And I am fucking HUMBLED by it all. I don’t know how he did it- where he got the energy to open his heart to so many?? How did he learn to give so much when it seems he was given so little?? I guess he was powered by the love he inspired in all of us. His death has given me a gift in making me see that I can do better. I can do better to love, to open my heart without judgment, to support those around me when they need a lift and to have the confidence in myself that I can do these things and have an impact and leave a legacy. I love you Harold Hunter!! You are an inspiration and it was an honor and a privilege to be your friend!!

Jerome Feb 27, 13:36 Yo, Harold was my favorite skater, with a pure gangsta New york Style... I just hear about his death know... He represents the Zoo york Familia... for ever.. Yo, live from Geneva, Rest In Peace Man. Jerome.

Jeff aka Deis Feb 27, 12:48 Harold Hunter was truely a role model and inspiration to many, a great skater, actor and will be greatly missed by Canada and the rest of the World, even though he's gone away, i know he's in a better place, Harold Hunter r.i.p, forever in our hearts...

Jamie J Feb 27, 11:41 Canada feels the lost of a true Originator! RIP HH

jojo Feb 27, 11:13 Thanks for the laughs and the skating bro.. RIP.. much love from L.A.

slider Feb 27, 10:30 Harold you touched my life and I never even met you. Life to Harold wasnt about being too serious And always living in the moment. Ive always been that way so when I started watching Skatemaps I instantly related to the Harold Hunter Way Of Thinking. My brother is a heavy addict and as I read all these messages I cry. Ive lost numerous friends to overdoses and I live in a cow town north of Tampa. If you have a friend who may need help please reach out your hand before its too late. Harold had so much more love to spread all over the world. It is now our jobs to do what Harold did SPREAD THE LOVE AND ALWAYS SMILE. My heart goes out to his family and especially his brother. So after we wipe the tears from our eyes go out skate,party and then laugh your asses off because thats the way Harold would have wanted it. S.I.P skate in peace.God knows your not going to REST. LEGENDS NEVER DIE YOUR IN MY HEART FOREVER. Slider

Twistedskater Feb 27, 10:19 Harold Was one of my favorite skaters. He always had a positive look on it, he did what he felt like doing and never tried to show off, i will miss him, Rest in peace *legends never die*

mafiosi Feb 27, 09:56 man, where can i dont even know where to start. I first saw the movie kids and i loved him in it sending messages for the youth out there. Then followed him up with Zoo York. Yo this man is a legend. That messed up that he's good. The world need poeple like harold. But his spirit will always live with me. RIP and madd love for the hunter fam. PEACE

ROB-JEST© Feb 27, 09:42 Saturday was a rough one man, but it was beautifull at the same time. You have a hilltop view and open skies all around you. Lots of love surrouding you and a special thank you to Rosarios Mom whom took us through that morning the way she did. One love Harold...

RollinStoned Feb 27, 09:35 yo man, harold was an origanal man, was the man when i started skating back in the day and cracked me up ever since, harolds the man and even though hes gone, as with all other greats, hell stay with us forever, peace man peace

K Boogie Feb 27, 09:32 Your credit is good with me Harold.

QUIK RTW Feb 27, 09:13 i used to live around the corner from Harold, and he always had a smile and friendly greeting for me. we maintained a mutual respect and appreciation over the years for each other's craft. i was just thinking about him, when suddenly i recieved the sad news. its lonely enough out here on the frontier, and he shall be missed as well as other fallen heroes. love from the netherlands.....rest in peace

Sofia Akremi Feb 27, 08:54 The first time I met Harold was 4 years ago, when he and my sister Sara were roommates on 2nd and 2nd.I must say that that summer was one of the craziest summers ever.I don´t think I have ever laughed as much as I did and that was mainly beacause of Harold Hunter.He was always nice to me and my brothers and he always made us laugh with his crazy jokes.Until this day me and my brothers talk about the summer of 2002.Im glad I got to know you Harold.You were a true character and you always had a smile on your face .You will always be remembered...Hugs and much love straigh outta Stockholm, Sweden

HOMELESS™ Feb 27, 05:54 you are proof that LEGENDS NEVER DIE _

CKC Feb 27, 04:12 Harold, your legacy will always be remembered. You said it best bro, legends never die, and aslong as you're still in our hearts, you'll never, ever be forgotten. Love always, R.I.P

David Flores Feb 27, 03:43 harold. havnt seen or heard from you in awhile i guess its my fault..this comes as a shock. powell skate park days, harold there, ripping back and forth..hella impatient...busting...see u there

BABY SCHIZO Feb 27, 03:22 HAROLD I HOPE YOU CAN SEE ME DOING GOOD..I KNOW IF YOU WERE WITH ME NOW YOU WOULD BE PROUD..YO KID I MISS YOU..MAD LOVE.....

eliana Feb 27, 02:29 i miss you so much Harold. you helped me through some rough times when i had no one. i remember us hanging at your house and watching cartoons on saturday mornings..one day i came into your room and you had the cranberries blasting and were lip-synching..you were getting really into it. it took you a while to know i was standing there watching you. that is a moment i will always remember. you taught me so much about skating. you always accepted me as i was. that's what i loved about you. you were like a big brother to me when i had no real family and sometimes going to your house was more like home than my own house. i remember one day at the cube i couldn't land a kickflip and i got so frustrated, i was about to lose it and then you came over to me and you said "do it and i'll lift you up while you do it so you know what it feels like to land it then you'll do it by yourself". i did what you said, you lifted me up and i landed it with you holding me up. after that i never had a problem landing a kickflip ever again. you always will be one of a kind, so genuine, and your spirit will always be here. i'm misssin you, but i know your spirit is still here..thank you Harold for affecting me and just being true to who you were. you're always in my heart poopiehead..sending you lots of hugs..

Woods Feb 27, 02:27 R.I.P Harold Hunter Some Day We Will All Play A Huge Game Of Skate Peace For Now But Not For Ever. Legends Never Die. May You Rest In Peace Harold Hunter You Will Be Missed.

Ant Feb 27, 01:37 Wow I learned of you for the first time today on some new channel Fuel TV. You sk8ed pretty sick, your board went in some water and you gave away some gear to a kid who got it. It was dirty clothes but he was super stoked. Rest In Peace

jason graham Feb 27, 01:33 Many people in this world hold on to delusions of grandeur and hope that someday they will be legendary. Many legendary people wish to be left alone; to be like “regular people.” Harold was one of the few human beings in history that was both a legend in his own mind and an actual legend. There are literally hundreds of thousands of stories of what this guy did on a day-to-day basis. Because he knew literally thousands of people. Remember the zest for life this guy had. Attacking life every day. Jimmy Pellitier said it—life became a movie when you were in Harold’s vicinity. A tragicomic, sometimes pornographic, but never boring movie.

SWES2006 Feb 27, 01:12 R.I.P. GOD BE WITH YOU

Q Feb 27, 00:39 yo, i miss you my nigga, you are always loved on this side, that's from me and the whole fam. ron, and mike hold your head. Your brother is the man and will always be the man. Love all u niggas. Better believe "legends never die".

Spencer W. Feb 27, 00:34 Harold is at rest now. We were all so lucky to be involved in Harold's life. Hugh Really said it best. I can't believe there were so many of us. Alex "Ducky" Talveras, Richie Rojas, Coco Santiago, Felix Arguiles, Kenny Usumanont, Steve Laverne, Aaron Lennox, Kamau Patton, English Jules, wall ride Rob, Nadim, Israel, Jon Soto, Maura, Gina, Mike "Tex" Kelly, Steve Quinn the freaky guy who would jump garbage cans in Washington Sq. Park. There are more that I can't think of, but we were a mob. There were times at the contests at the Brooklyn bridge when you could just see how big we all were. In the 3 days at Harold's wake I saw so many faces of people I had known and forgotten. Life is strange how it takes the death of someone like Harold to remind of how precious life is, and how large our circle of friends actually is. I will always remember Harold. I remember him as a skinny little kid on a crappy skateboard. I remember him as a teenaged wiseass who started to get good style and tricks. I remember him as an adult who went pro and started to make his dream of being famous come true. I remember him as someone we all loved to be around because he always had something silly to say. It wasn't so much that he was calculated in his words of wisdom. It was his just shooting em out as they came to him regardless of content that was just so damn funny sometimes. He was a true character. Harold touched me as he touched us all. My life is richer to have been affected by him. At Harold's wake the room was packed. People were standing shoulder to shoulder and there was a priest in the front who was leading the whole group in prayer for Harold, who was right there in an open casket. The priest starts in his sermon. "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to celebrate the life of our fallen brother, Harold in his final earthbound days with us." The Priest is trying to get his words out, but his voice isn't as loud as the music coming from the speakers in the ceiling. From the speakers I hear Ol' Dirty Bastard from Wu-Tang going "Baby I like it raaaw, Ooh baby I like it RAAAAW"! People in the back started laughing! It was so awkward. Laughing at a wake. I was thinking that is EXACTLY how Harold would have wanted it. He wouldn't have changed a thing. I am going to start going downtown again. I am going to rekindle relationships with those I knew. Harold has shown me I need to. Roll on Harold. I love you. Thanks for everything. Spencer Weisbond

Marisa Feb 27, 00:34 Rest In Peace Harold! To Ron, Mike and the rest of the family: I have not seen you all in years and when i got the news of Harold's untimely passing I was devastated and immediately started thinking back to the good old days. Harold was a great guy and always a pleasure to be around. He will truly be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Much Love

305 skatin Feb 27, 00:19 you were one of the best skaters always having fun always skating for fun and you always kept it real like you harold hunter always said legends never die!!!!

Erkan Kose Feb 27, 00:03 LEGENDS NEVER DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nermin Feb 26, 23:36 Harold Hunter was one of the truest skaters, he always stayed true to the sport and never gave up on it. His hunger fueled his passion and his passion fueled skateboarding. He will trully role forever ~legends never die~

AustinBMX Feb 26, 23:20 only knew Harold from Skate Maps, he is the reason I watched, I'll miss the antics and the fun...I raise my glass to him

crispy Feb 26, 23:04 Rest in peace harold ... legendery to the fullest keep shinin'

Feb 26, 23:01 hugh, you wrote such beautiful words of wisdom and love for harold. such a gift.

s. dot Feb 26, 22:48 Sometime last year Harold and i got into a fight over some bullshit (so typical)...i saw hiim soon after that at some fashion week party and being super drunk i decided to give him a piece of my mind...I rolled up, stopped in front of him and said "I love you from the bottom of my heart and i'll always have a place for you in there but you are fucking CRAZY and don't ever speak to me again"...he just stood there with his signature smile/smirk...i'm sure the only words he heard were "I love you" ...nothing else i said after those 3 words mattered...that's what dude was about...he loved EVERYBODY...no judgements and no questions asked...knowing Harold was loving him...and for all the haters...I HATE NIGGAS WHO HATE NIGGAS thankfully, Harold and I squashed our beef and the last words we spoke to each other were "I Love you"...i'm glad i shared those words with you numerous times and thanks for teaching me what they truly mean...

RIP Feb 26, 22:46 i was at my friends house watching Kids, when i get a call from my friend tellin me the news. i couldnt believe it, i look up at the screen and there he is, young harold hunter. youll never be forgotten harold. R.I.P. legends never die. one love.

dave DQM Feb 26, 22:11 hey it's been a crazy week since we all heard the news about Harold... the party last night was the best it was something he would have been proud of. For all of the people who came out to the wake and all of the things we did for our brother i want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart we will and never forget the greatest guy New York could offer. we will miss you Harold and never forget you. LEGENDS NEVER DIE D.

guido sk8r Feb 26, 22:03 i am a skater from argentina that allways watched skate maps. so what can i say??. rest in peace brother, represent.- heres my mail guidoprovenzanosk8@hotmail.com

dmpmusic.com Feb 26, 21:49 I used to emulate Harold. Growing up skateboarding for many years i found him to be one of the dopest skaters around....plus not too many black skaters were even out there at that time. He broke down barriers and showed people whats up. RIP HH - You were a inspiration. shonsteez - dmpmusic.com

pantyraiderx9x Feb 26, 21:32 Harold RIP your the man!

73x4n s873r Feb 26, 21:18 its hard to imagine him gone. i had only met him once when the zoo york skate team did a demo in dallas and he seemed like a cool guy. it sucks but every life he touched will never be the same.

rich h Feb 26, 21:17 harold was my favorite guy on the fuel skate trips shows. he will be remembered for his humorous acts on the show.he was great. be thankful you had him for 31 years. rich hausmaninger

Hugh Gran Feb 26, 21:03 THE LONG OF IT: I was infront of the MOCA (like the MOMA) in LA to check out a show when my man Mike called me with the news. I had come out here to see my Wife's folks and my fam in San Diego who had come back from serving in Iraq. When Mike called he was shook, and even though it was still a rumor at that time we both felt it was true. I can't explain the tragic feelings that went through me. It was like when my man Jayson died, and all I could do was deal with it. It sucks. That simple. New York has suffered a loss of one of it's most colorful, and wonderful citizens. A true New Yorker in a town that is becoming less like the New York we grew up in every day. So please bear with me as I reminisce. Let me write this as a testimet to Harold and all the great New York kids that died before him way too early... My first memory of Harold was in Washington Sq. Park before he was even fourteen. We used to go there to skate and ride those crumbly banks. Bruno, Ian, Pepe, Harry, Stosh, Jermey, Rodney, Eli, Aly, Bosco, Wyatt, Beasley, Eric, Joe, Stanley, Big Jim, Luke, Pang, Chapy, Wiley, Steve, Spencer, big and little puppet, little Jim Kerr, Justin, Hernie, Dave, Shadi, Ming, Chan, Billy, Q, Jamal, Ham, John, Alex, Frank, Anthony, and Rick were all there. There were more than that, but there are too many heads... Some I rode with, some I knew from around the way. I cant remember them all right now, but I had love for all. This started way back when doing an ollie over the benches into the banks was a highly respectable move, and dudes were still doing inverts and bonlesses. That park was funky back in the day; it was a real mixing pot of all the surrounding neighborhood's rejects, and believe me skating was a reject activity back then. Don't get me wrong though, the rejects were were the coolest and most fun folks to roll with. This was a central area that heads would come to and then go fourth and thrash the surrounding hoods for years... From the 80's into the 90's untill Rude Boy Ghouliani started a militant clamdown on the city and the parks. Before that sad day, in Washington Square Park a crew of old dogs were skating through, and here was this skinny ass little kid struggling to keep up. He was a tiny little grom with bright red hair... He had tried to dye it or something, and he ended up looking like some kind of anime character mashup with a muppet. I was just old enough that I could almost keep up with these older dogs, but Harold was so small and skinny that he was lagging behind a little. He had so much shine though... Whenever we stopped to session somewhere he would tear it up with moves and crazy ass stories and jokes. He was hungry, but not in an insincere way. He was inspired by his peoples; he would lay that shine on you, and it would just make you feel good. You could tell he really cared about you, although he was an actor, and a card, he was sincere. I think all the OGs could tell he was coming from hard times and he was looking for new worlds to live in. So even though he was small and had trouble keeping up, they would always slow down and keep him in their sights. Skateboarding pulled him out of a harsh reality and it set him free. It was the beginning of a process that would take him to places he probably would have never gone to otherwise, and it opened doors for him in so may ways... He was making us laugh and having a great time from day one. It wasn't long before he was blowing past me doing shit I never could even imagine on a skateboard, and eventually I would just sit down and watch one of New York's masters tear it up... He was a unique one because he never got stale, or out of date... He transcended not only skateboard evolutions, but urban and social changes as well. As the Old Dogs moved on Harold was still doing his thing. He became a center piece, giving all the new groms love and never forgetting where he came from. He always could be found with his board, down to skate, and down to learn. He was Always an innovator, a leader, but he was also competitive in a positive way, and got psyched by other's achievements. Sometimes he would get a little lazy and start to just hang out and ham it up with peoples. I remember many years after Washington Square Park, and even after the Skate NYC days, at Union Square... Heads had taken over that Park as a new central mecca after a grand Parks Department renovation project that was supposed to clean it up and remove the bad elements... It didn't really work. So that Day at Union Square a group of local heads had set up a shitty piece of ply wood that launched over a trash can (not so long ago we were still making our own skateparks). So there was Harold, coming up and talking lots of junk, cracking jokes, and telling me about the crazy night he had the day before. He was taking it easy just hitting the ramp and doing crisp ollies over the can, when a girl from the Rookie team I think her name was Lauren did a sick switch heal flip... suddenly Harold was stoked... He said "Oh shit I get amped when I see girls rip it", and proceeded to fight his hangover till he was matching her move. Ready to step up to a challenge, but Always supportive. That was him. A few weeks later we were all bombing down St. Marks. Justin was still alive, and I was now having trouble keeping up. Loki was launching over shit too. J Carter was there with Ham I think, and I was getting old... I mean these kids were tearing shit up! But Harold was there stoked to see me still kicking it, even if that was all I could do at that time. He was always popping up wherever I went, and it wasn't always on the world of skating. Back in the day at the clubs I'd see him dancing and having a great time. At the Power House in the old Building space we shared the dance floor and he always tore that up too. He was still a kid. We would form sick circles and he would make moves. Funny, but tight. real blow you away shit... At Sheets and Pillows he was there getting hyped at one of the best underground hip hop venues ever. When Fishbone came to play way back he was there, but I dont know if he was old enough it get in back then. He was there. He was so there. In every aspect of music and culture in New York he was there. From the Raves to the Hard Core shows, from the demos, to the freestyle sessions in the park... He lived in so may worlds in the universe of New York, Cause it was all there and it was happening at the same time. He was always down for all of them equally. He was there for the love. My last time seeing him out was actually with His brother Ron. It was that Burton Party a while back (I don't get out much) and all three of us were just reminiscing. Harold kept telling Ron "I've known Hugh since way back" and Ron replied "I know, I know, I've known him too... easy man". Harold was just psyched to see an old face, and wanted everyone to know it, and wanted all of us to have a good time. Ron kept it real and started to catch tags all over the banners in the club. I just laughed and took it all in. Harold was there in the street, but he was in the home too... No matter what I was always happy to have him over for some food, and drinks, and some good old shit talking... He would always bring me back, telling me how he used to get psyched on my old dog moves, or some crazy ass drawing I did back in the day. He always made me feel good, and it wasn't uncommon to see him lounging at someone's place like he was fam, because he was. He would come over, never planned; he would just pop up, and it was all good. He was like that favorite Cousin that would stop by unannounced, and drink you under the table, or take you out to play if you were feeling blue and didnt get enough sunshine that day. I had the honor of spending last Christmas with him. It was great. My homegrrrl Alex said "Harold is coming over", and I said "word, get him over here". We drank late into the evening, acting all crazed, while my wife Jasmine got out the Magic Mike and we Karaoked in to the late hours. In true Harold fashion he was trying to talk to my man Mike's girl's cousin from Japan, talking about how he loved Japanese people and culture, and how he wanted to get back there real soon. It was all good times. He downed a bottle with me, and we all talked about old and new things. When he stepped out my door that night for the last time, he was so humble, thanking me for having him over for Christmas, but I was the one who was humbled. While I lost track of so many of my friends from back in the day (or they lost track of me), Harold was always there. When he rolled through, it was positive and good. And I guess that's what hurts so much. Is that in his last days it seemed that he was really slowing down on the skating and speeding up on the partying till it was too much and it was too late. I didn't see it coming... I didn't think it was that bad. I keep hearing positive and negative things from so many people. Of course I would. It's like we all fam that knew him. So like in any loss of a close one we suffer bitter feelings. As someone that has lost all my grandparents, both parents, cousins my age, friends my age, in so many different ways from natural death, to suicide, drugs, and tragidy, I can say this. Do not hold on to the bitterness, cherish the blessed times you had with them, and learn from the not so blessed times. God don't like ugly. Harold wouldn't want that. I never saw it coming for all my fam that perished before him: All my blood lost, All my friends lost, and now you Harold my friend. My buddy who Started off so small and ended larger than life itself. It breaks my heart, just like it broke when my friends and family before him passed away. I'll remember Harold as I always knew him larger than life, but just another good fella from around the way bringing a smile to my face when I'd bump into him. That's how I will remember him. So I send This memory to you Harold, and I share this with your friends and family. Shine in heaven as you shined in the world and we will all see each other again. God bless you.

RIP HH Feb 26, 20:53 Rest in Peace Bro. Rest in Peace.

Adam Wise Feb 26, 20:44 I am a skater who has watched skatemaps since it started and I have always liked watching Harold rap and carry on. I liked all the tricks he would do like the nollie b/s 180 heelflips and my favorite the "judo". We will all miss you Harold so remember that legends never die.Skate for life and after

DizzyD Feb 26, 20:32 I was in the military in the middle of no where so me and my roommate thought we would rent this Movie titled "KIDS". What a piece of art. We watched that movie over and over and racked up serious late fees. I would later go onto watch Harold on Skate Maps on Fuel TV. He entertained me over and over with his talent. Keep skatin' Harold!

JAY Feb 26, 20:19 You made your presence felt all over man. You tore up spots and inspired kids, we'll miss the hell out of you bro. "Legends Never Die" See you on the other side. Much love to the whole Hunter family, Zoo York team members, families and friends. Stay Strong

TOAST Feb 26, 20:11 I grew up watching this dude sk8. My friends and I were just lil punks back then but we'd always be starstruck whenever we'd spot a Zoo head chillin at a spot. Harold was definitely a stand out part of that crew it seemed like-because of his charisma and free-spirited'ness. I'd always be incredibly nervous approaching any known skater. But I'd say hi to Harold every now n then whenever I'd see him and he would always be friendly and really cool even if he was in a rush. Unfortunately I've stopped skating since then and I've been outta the mix with what goes on outside my apartment. I found out today from someone I work with whom also works with Larry Clark about Mr. Hunter's passing. He was always considered something of a NYC living legend to me and my friends. I will always be very thankful that I at least got to really speak with him about a year ago (at a photogallery opening) and tell him how much of a hero and inspiration he was to me. He will always be remembered. My heart goes out to his family, friends, and other fans like myself. ...One of the last of a dying breed of native NY legends.

Edwin Feb 26, 19:58 Saw you on Fuel. Your skating was always one of the Highlights.

jessie Feb 26, 19:31 I never got to see you skate and I was never into you but you are a dream for black skaters like me

pg Feb 26, 18:25 Rest In Peace Harold. LEGENDS NEVER DIE mad love

crutches Feb 26, 18:15 losing such a significant being is hard. i know because i too, lost my brother only a couple of months ago. you remember all those good times you had with them. i sympathize for all of his friends and family. it's funny seeing someone so alive, resting. the last encounter i had with harold he said to my friend, "the last time i saw you, you were so little. i can't wait till you get older, just don't tell your dad i said that." now i'm thinking damn, he doesn't have that chance to see her grown up now. my brother told his friend that he wished he was closer to me and got to know me better now that i'm older. damn, he never got the chance either. keep them alive by remembering those good times. harold was a prodigy, an idol, a friend, a brother, a son, and a legend. he will ALWAYS be remembered.

mclean Feb 26, 17:07 R.I.P harold you will be missed

aliciax76 Feb 26, 12:59 Gett'n off the F train at W. 4th st. O n my way to Washington square, cause ya knew he'd always be there. Whipp'n around on his board, smiles swam across his face. Weav'n in 'n outa 'n over benches 'n thru trees. Almost never land'n on his knees. The sun shone, everyone was out & ya knew you'd made the right decision by ditch'n school. Tee hee, he made all the girls giggle with panting eyes. Trapped inside the beauty of his slanted eyes, to his his deep dark skin, with his wit 'n charm he reeled us all in. I probably haven't thought about you in years.......,but my memories been jogged, and now I feel robbed. So dear ol' Harold, ol' friend, ol' pal, it's time to reminisce over you............. Rest in Peace, May all the dreams that you dreamt, see themselves come true. Remember those dayzz?..... There was that time when you thought you were great, untouchable. No fear of any fate, you'd jump on ur board and dream of escape……… To get out of this place of uncertainty, To have a clean face To not eat off of another dirty plate To be part of something better than great, To live life to it's fullest the way that you would never really wanting to leave the hood. you were certain. but now it's time to draw the curtain. Remember those dayzz….? Remember those dayz.. When u were young… Gett'n older was someth'n That did'nt faze ya All ya cared about was hav'n fun Back when u were lazy ur head full a haze… Life seemed like a maze……. Remember those dayz….? Remember those dayz…. The whole world was at ur fingertips and that force forced you out onto the streets looking for that place that would have enough space for you… you were so big. You just didn't fit. It was all such a trip for that boy in & outa touch always keep'n on a smile never loosing his grip. Remember those dayzz….? Remember those dayz…. Back at A&D on the roof top droppin beats that would ease us through another day, Take a subway ride and you'll see…… All that phat graffiti we did, try'n to make a stand Up to the man remember who I am? Remember those dayz….? Remember those dayz back at nasa.. nothing bad could ever happen we were invincible! make'n moves that were awed by us all.. You were never supposed to fall. Remember those dayz? When we tried so hard not To l

Sara Brittany Feb 26, 02:02 I met Harold when I was 11 years old and I lived in the West Village on Thompson Street. He would come by my crib and pick me up and we would skate over to Washington Square Park and chill with the skinheads, punk rock kids, skaters, NYU kids and various other vagrants and hangers on, the big extended posse, you know. We'd jump from roof top to rooftop, chill'n' here there and everywhere. I couldn't skate worth of sh-- but Harold always looked out and let me tag along and kept me from being in danger. We'd crash out at whomever's crib we happened to be hangin' out at the moment. Someone would always invariably feed us, clothe us, buy us beer and send us on our merry way. I would disappear for days with Big H as I liked to call him. He was my big brother and he always looked out for me. As I got older and got my shit together, he remained a constant friendly face. He never begrudged me my come-uppance. He was true blue. When the KIDS movie came out he asked me if I saw it and I said, "No way bro. I lived that sh-- I don't need to watch it." He just cracked up and said, "I hear you." The last time I saw him, he just came in from LA, he looked great. Naturally he was carrying his ubiquitous skateboard. We hugged like the long lost friends we were. He called me later that night, around 4am and begged me to come over to his apt and chill. His voice sounded all crazy. I knew he was high. I told him I was asleep in bed and too tired to come out to party. I apologized profusely to him and promised I would call him in the morning, that I would catch him next time. The last thing he said to me was, "stay a good girl, I love you." There was never a next time for us. I can only hope that I will see him again one day. I don't know whether his death was an accidental overdose or a premeditated one and I don't care. Harold was a jewel. I loved him and I will remember him always.

FAKT Feb 26, 01:50 Seeing you was always a pleasure. Thanks for all the good time's.

penko Feb 26, 01:34 R.i.P

alec Feb 26, 01:02 Everyone will miss you! You were funny and a good skater! Legends never die!!!!

Evan Woods Feb 26, 00:30 I cant find enough words to describe the kind of awesome person that you are, you made everyone feel good about them selves even If they were just watching you skate or cook you would just set the vibe and make everyone feel as one. I never got the honor of meeting you but If I could I know that It would be one of the greatest times of my live that I would always look back on. Peace For Now But Not For Ever. Legends Never Die. May You Rest In Peace Harold Hunter You Will Be Missed.

Shaun Feb 26, 00:30 We all lost a good skater but a greater man....we all will miss you Harold Hunter R.I.P!!

TWGAPK Feb 25, 23:35 YOU ARE A TRUE LEGEND "LEGENDS NEVER DIE"

Leah McSweeney Feb 25, 23:28 Today as we remembered you and mourned our loss and celebrated your life here, I swear I could see you walking down the isle of the church. You were wearing a white suite and a white fedora with a red rose on it, you wear smiling and looking like you never have. And I know you were there with us and you heard Avril's loving insightful words and Mamma D's angelic voice as she sang to you and to us. We laughed hard remembering your funny and unique ass self! But we cried harder thinking about how much we will miss you and how it feels like you were taken too soon. Bye for now but not forever....

Ricardo Flores Feb 25, 22:54 I just knew about Harold in a Fuel TV show called Skate maps that I see in Mexico city (the place I live and born in) it's terrible to know that someone like Harold died, I hope that his work in skateboarding will be remembered by all, his jokes, his crazyness, everything. Long life to Harold wherever he is.

Todd Feb 25, 22:52 what a shame to lose this talent from our community.

Ramon Feb 25, 22:39 When I made my first post I didn't know this was for Harold's family. Ron sorry I came through like that. I wanted to come and say something. But I just coudln't handle it. I knew he was gone but it didn't hit home until I stepped in your place. This is what I wanted to say: I wanna offer my condolescences to you, Mike, your sister, your cousins and your uncles. Your brother treated me like a little brother. Whenever anybody messed with me he always held me down. He encouraged me when I was trying to get my start. And you didn't have to be nobody special to be his friend. You didn't have to look like nothing. He didn't judge people on how they looked. And he had a big heart. That's what I wanted to really say about the dude. I know y''all know all this already but I just wanted to express my deep appreciation for how good he treated me and all ya'll treated. Mike tryin to teach me how to fight and shit. Ha! Ha! Rest in Peace Harold!! There'll never be another like you!!!

Gold Deez Feb 25, 21:12 R.I.P. Harold.......thanks for the memories!

Liz Regensburge Feb 25, 21:00 I knew Harold always from downtown. I seeing him at the Jetblue terminal at JFK in 2000, we were coincedentally on the same flight to LA and HAROLD was riding his skateboard through the termainal. We planned to chat on the plane but five minutes after take off, Harold was asleep and droolin'.
