It is with the heaviest of hearts to write this, but Jayo Archer has passed away leaving a void impossible to fill for his friends, family and fans around the world.
While it is early news, we respect the wishes of friends and family and hope they are able to grieve easier without scrutiny during this terrible time.
All I can say right now is, he was one of the best guys I had met in Freestyle MX. His personality, attitude and positivity was infectious. He was so humble, easy to talk too with no ego associated with the level of success he had achieved and the limits he was pushing.
My thoughts are with his family and friends right now. This will be the toughest of times for them but to know that we all respected Jayo so much.
If you would like to listen to our Podcast and hear how passionate he was about the Triple Flip, tune in here on Spotify:
I’m absolutely gutted to hear this news.. I really can’t believe it. But I’m so glad that he was able to do things that almost no one else in the world would even attempt. He reached for the stars, he was a hero to many and a truly great human. Qualities I can only hope we all aspire too.
