可能很多人已經知道Andy過世的消息不過我還是很難過,因為我第一個認識的衝浪選手不是Kelly,是Andy 我是從一張很漂亮的桌布上認識他的...然後開始接觸這個運動然後他走了... Andy,願你在天上安息!! 以下是我在網路上找到比較詳盡的原文大意就是Andy在ASP比賽因生病中途退賽然後因為登革熱在轉機回夏威夷的過程裡過世在途中新聞連結 http://www.sanclementetimes.com/view/full_story/10139284/article-Pro-Surfer-Andy-Irons-Dead-at-32-?instance=surf_headlines 縮網址:http://goo.gl/yWnIt 新聞原文 Pro Surfer Andy Irons Dead at 32 by Andrea Swayne San Clemente Times Nov 02, 2010 | 2372 views As word gets out about the untimely death of three time surfing world champion Andy Irons (32) earlier today, the surfing world is reeling in disbelief. Sources and reports from surf news media outlets such as Transworld Surf and Surfer magazines, ESPN and Fox Sports News as well as surfing’s tight-knit social media “friend” lists on Facebook are reporting that on Saturday Irons pulled out of his heat at the Rip Curl Pro Search, now on in Puerto Rico, because he was too ill to compete and wished to return home. Sources say that he was too sick to board a connecting flight in Texas on his way back home to Kauai. Ill and grounded, he apparently booked a hotel room on Monday where his body was found this morning. The Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) is yet to issue an official statement but Irons’ main sponsor Billabong did issue an official press release confirming his passing. No official word about the cause of death has been released, but sources close to Irons say that he had been suffering from symptoms consistent with dengue fever (also known as dengue flu) for the past few days. Fellow pro surfer Australian Mark Occhilupo also told Fox Sports News that Irons had contracted dengue fever before and was prone to recurrent symptoms whenever Irons felt sick or run down. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), dengue is caused by one of four related viruses transmitted by the bite of infected mosquitoes. DHF, or dengue hemorrhagic fever, is a severe form of the infection which can be fatal. An outbreak notice that is posted on the CDC website lists current outbreaks in Central and South America and the Caribbean including Puerto Rico. After taking a year off from the pro tour, Irons returned this year with a vengeance. He put on an impressive comeback show here in San Clemente at San Onofre State Beach during the Nike 6.0 Lowers Pro this past May when he just missed out on making the final by a mere 0.22 of a point against Gabe Kling in the semis. Then in September, he went on to win the Billabong Pro Tahiti. Irons was most recently ranked No. 16 on the ASP World Tour. Irons leaves behind his wife Lyndie Dupuis who is expecting their first child shortly, his brother and fellow pro surfer Bruce, a loving family and legions of admiring friends and fans. Our condolences go out to the family and friends of Andy Irons. May he rest in peace.
