CCDude was my first real inspiration to go out and ask women if I could take pics of their feet. I read (and took) the advice on his old website which basically said, like Nike, to "just do it".
His pics are awesome, and the stories that went with them are just as great. He was a pioneer as far as I'm concerned.

Its wonderful that you guys respect CCdeud so much. He was one of my greatest friends and a blast to be around. We talked about once a month and went on several outings. The last time I had communication with him was the first part of Jan. Getsmart was in Hawaii and Miss__R called me on the 19th. to tell me of the news. I have been trying to get hold of CC's daughter to find out all the details. Though it seems his phone number has been disconnected. Miss__R & Getsmart are making attempts to locate his daughter to get more details. Have not talked to MonoTX in quite awhile so have no idea if she has even heard the news.
CCdeud was and Icon and leader in the foot community, was straight forward and honest. He would give the coat off his back to help someone even if he didn't have a shirt to put on. He was not backward about talking to women and if a ladies BF/husband got mouthy CC was down right commical the way he handled it.
He was close to 60 years and like the rest of us seemed to 19 years old trapped in a 60 year old body. Always full of fun and quick with a comical comeback.
He was a blast to be around. Just a down right great bromo. And a hell of a Steel guitar player.

I've never heard of this guy but saw a few worship clips with him in on youtube... Judging by the clips linked in by LaDae and all the comments on this thread, he's a well respected Legend in the foot world... Pitty you didn't get to meet with him when you had the chance... He lived the life that I dream of...
R.I.P to a Legend CCDude

I, like many, remember his site being one of the first I visited when first surfing the net. Its amazing that he was doing all that filming back in the '70's way before the internet.

Peace to you CCDude and all the other families on this board...the one thing that rang tru to me as I had a bumpy ride on the last plane was "it ain't how long U do, but what you do," while here. He was an innovator and leaves a legacy...godspeed good men!

Now I am only 28 and I remember him back in the days. Not near as well as the older crowd on here. He was definitely well known.
