On behalf of Neil, Jen, and the entire family, it is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the devastating news of the passing of our beautiful boy, Tim Ollier. Tim left us far too soon, and the depth of this loss is something words can scarcely capture. Our hearts are shattered.
Timmy was a glorious soul—full of light, full of joy, and truly the life of the party. His laughter, his warmth, and the effortless way he brought people together made him someone who could brighten even the hardest of days. To know Tim was to feel seen, welcomed, and understood.
The WindanSea Boardriders and the wider surfing community are mourning alongside his family. Tim was not only a beloved friend but a cherished member of our surfing family. His love for the ocean, his connection to the waves, and the freedom he found in the water defined so much of who he was.
He now joins the surfing brothers and sisters who have gone before him—forever riding that endless wave.
Rest in peace, Tim. Your spirit, your smile, and the imprint you left on all of us will never be forgotten.
At this time, Tim’s family is profoundly aware of the heartbreak felt by all who loved him. While they hold everyone close in their thoughts, they kindly request the space to grieve and reflect on this immense loss. When they are ready, they will share details about gathering, support, or remembrance.
For anyone struggling with this moment, please reach out—to family, friends, or someone who can listen. No one needs to navigate this grief alone.
