I just got a text message. Apparently CR hit his head on a rock while skiing Headwall (Squaw) this morning and has passed away. I will keep this thread updated with details as I get them.

Every time I see this thread I reread through the first few pages, so sad, I need to stop doing that. He's definitely left his mark on the industry. He's a very inspirational person, RIP CRJ.

Looking back at all these first replies and people saying "god no this must be a joke" and then realising the thread isnt. SIP and RIP CRJ. And abou the quote, someone should continue his plan of making an outerwear company, and have everything/ most things dedicated to CR. Just a thought
