Official Statement: HONOLULU - (November 2, 2010) -- The world of surfing mourns an incredibly sad loss today with the news that Hawaii's Andy Irons has died. Andy was a beloved husband, and a true champion. Irons, 32,withdrew from a professional surfing event in Puerto Rico last weekend due to illness and passed away during a layover en-route to his home in Kauai, Hawaii. He had reportedly been battling with dengue fever, a viral disease. At this time the family thanks his friends and fans for their support,and asks that the community respect its privacy. The family also asks to not be contacted so their focus can remain on one another during this time of profound loss.
It is with deep sadness that Billabong has learned of the news of Andy Irons’ passing. Andy was one of the greatest surfers of our time. More than that, he was a much loved son, a devoted husband and a soon-to-be father. The thoughts of all Billabong employees worldwide are with wife Lyndie and Andy’s family at this most devastating time.

I just want to take a moment to say thank you for your contribution to the sport of surfing and your legacy will live on forever! It's tragic that you were taken so early in life, but god has bigger plans for you and the impact you made around the world in such a short period of time and the lives you've touched will forever be grateful! Your truly one of a kind and I'm sure your surfing mountains up above! My heart goes out to your family and they are in my thoughts and prayers.
Dengue Fever, hospitals and IV drips....
Turns out, there were no hospitals. IV drips?
Why is a clothing company "managing" a death?
Gods accept and embrace him with open arms. You WILL always be on our MINDS and FOREVER in our HEARTS. We will only wait until the newest Irons, a beatiful baby girl, or a kekoa of a son will be ripping it up like their Daddy did. God Bless, Mahalo.
With lots of love,
fellow surfer xx
