Emerica have launched a website to commemorate the career of Heath Kirchart, who announced his retirement from professional skating earlier this year.
The site features a tribute to Kirchart by the skater-come-artist Ed Templeton, as well as a collection of stories from such as Greg Hunt, Jeremy Klein, and Dave Swift.
Kirchart's career spanned almost 15 years and included parts in some of the most influential skate films ever made including The End, Sight Unseen and, most recently, Stay Gold.
A video section will be accessible from November 12.
Says Templeton: "We will miss you Heath Kirchart’s pro skate career. Rest in peace."
