Remember seeing him and Frosty at a competition at Yate near Bristol skating the novel for the time concrete park, which was lumpy and terrible. He was in his full Anti Hero stage, red mesh trucker, green t shirt and brown dickiesā€¦ watching him rip the place was an indeliable highlight of the day. (Another highlight was that welsh Nicky kid doing fs 540s in sports trainers) RIP. ---

So sad . Dunno what else to say. Even if his skating wasnā€™t your cup of tea his style and control was undeniable. I forget where I heard it but someone once recounted a Magee quote at urban games ā€œDougieā€™s the best skater here and he isnā€™t even doing tricksā€ Rest in peace Doug and Cath x ---

My first ever Sidewalk was the one with his haunts, just went to reread it and Iā€™d cut out all the photos to cover my school books with. Saw him skate Leeds a few times, he seemed like a good bloke. As Wally said, itā€™s hard to fathom the tragedies his family went through. RIP ---

Agreed @WallyBazoum great post. Havenā€™t known what to say about Doug. Felt a great sadness about his passing, feels numbing. Something I knew was coming but never when to expect it. He was a complex character but I spent a lot of amazing times with him and at his true self he was the most charming and charismatic, funny guy youā€™ve ever met. Not to mention a wizard on a board, glad to have know him. In the height of our friendship I got in from a night out at about 4 am had an argument with me ex girlfriend, and walked to a nearby park to lie in a bush and forget about stuff. Who would cycle past me in that exact spot and cry laughing when I jumped out the bush at him but Doug. We sat for hours laughing in a bush til the sun came up. Got a lot of stories like this about him. I was with him about two weeks ago. He wasnā€™t in a good way, but emotionally and as himself, he seemed at peace. Glad him and Cath are together again x ---

I never had the pleasure of meeting Doug, but I always loved seeing his footage and photos. RIP to a real one. ---

I never met him either. You could tell he was one of those guys that are ten times more incredible in the flesh than in videos, no matter how fantastic his footage was, and it always was. RIP Doug. ---

There is no more entertaining breed of UK skateboarder than the wild Yorkshireman simultaneously hanging on for dear life but in complete control. Iā€™ve been terrified by a few over the years, but obviously Doug is _the_ model. As a person and skateboarder he will never be forgotten. RIP ---

Never saw Doug skate in person, but I did see him play the dad guitar when Gentlemanā€™s Pistols supported The Answer in a wee club in Merthyr of all places. I had to double take for a sec I did. He seemed like a top bloke and was a shredder, always got stoked on what footy I saw of him. RIP. ---
