He was a Burton rider that died in Feb. 2003. He was beginning to etch his name forever in snowboarding. IIRC he was sliding down a spiral staircase in a hotel (on his butt, not board) and he fell four stories to his death. If not correct can someone correct me.

Here's a link to what Jeff had accomplished.

Ouch...Kids that's why you always should wear a helmet...Especially when sliding down a five story staircase rail at 3:00 in the morning..

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm not real sure if a helmet will help with a 40 foot fall to concrete.

Scott Jones, i agree.

Jeff anderson was for sure a rider pushing the sport he had soooooo much style! i have the nixon jibfest video from a few years ago and he just kills it in there, so much steeze its insane! its such a sad story to think of how much he still had left in him.

i think its very cool that burton still produces a board under his name.

lets not forget Craig Kelly either

R.I.P.
