Heard about this Friday. Terrible loss.
I didn't personally know Karl, but losing someone in the same sport I participate in is heartbreaking.
My condolences go out to his family and close friends.
I had gotten to know Karl pretty well over the last few weeks, i was his wing-man when we got left with the skater all memorial weekend, after that i remember thinking to myself what a cool guy he was, and how he'd be one of those guys that would be a friend for life, he fit right in like he had been around for years, I can't express how terrible of a loss this is, he was the greatest guy, had a great personality, and was very humble about everything he did. I will never forget the guy, and at least i can say that he had a great life so far, especially over the last few weeks hanging out with him. He had done more in his life time than many of us would ever dream of, and he will be truly missed. My condolences go out to his family, you raised one hell of a son.

Racey you are The Man. How many people came come from out of the country and get exposed to what Karl did. Very, very few. He went out doing what he loved. His family must know this. His race team must be hurting as well. God bless them all.
