Dylan Rieder, a very well known professional skateboarder, grew up in Westminster, California. Rieder began skating at the age of nine years old and became a professional skateboarder at the age of eighteen for a brand named Alien Workshop. His big breakout part took place in Transworld Skateboarding's video in 2006 titled A Time To Shine.

Rieder was first diagnosed with leukemia in July 2014. During this year he always filmed the video Supreme - Cherry.

Rieder grew up with his mother and father, and younger sister, Makenna. In March 2015, he received a bone marrow transplant from his sister which resulted into the announcement of remission about a month later. Rieder continued to live his life day to day, skating and even doing some modeling. One of the main advertisements he was known for was when he took part in a spring ad campaign of DKNY along side of Cara Delevinge and Jourdan Dunn. Although the news of remissions was received, the cancer returned in November of 2015. Due to further complications with the leukemia, the skateboarding community, his family and friends all had to say their goodbyes on October 12, 2016 at the young age of 28.

Rieder was known to the community as a down to earth, friendly, incredible person.
Model, Cara Delevinge, came to Instagram with an image of the two from their photoshoot with the caption: "One of the kindest, most down to earth incredible human beings I have ever encountered. You will be missed by so many people. Ride and Rest in Peace Dylan Rieder. "

Fellow professional skateboarder, Tony Hawk, also came to the public about the loss by sharing a video of Rieder with the caption, "Thank you for making skateboarding so much better while you were here, Dylan. Skating like this can't be taught; it is a product of passion, dedication, and innate style. Dylan Rieder had all that and more. "

Even Ozzy Osbourne came to Twitter with a picture and the caption reading, " One of the most talent & brave men. I feel blessed to have known you. Rest in Peace Dylan. My love & condolences to his family. "

Rieder's family have recieved endless condolences and flowers as Dylan Rieder touched the hearts of many and they are nothing but grateful for that. They have asked that donations now be made in his memory to Dr. Stephen Forman, an international expert in leukemia and lymphoma.
