Leigh Nardelli RIP ……Go Fund Me

The skate industry has been shaken by the news that Leigh Nardelli, 46  died in a tragic car accident on Saturday the 6th July leaving behind his two boys Eddie 17 and Axel 4. Leigh was an amazing, doting father who provided everything for his sons. Losing him has left a huge hole in the lives of not only his close family and friends, but everyone that knew him.

 

Leigh started at NDUK in the late 90’s. After NDUK, Leigh joined the team at Dwindle taking care of the UK shops, a few years later he took over the EMEA region for dwindle distribution sales and later marketing. Leigh also managed  OEM for many of the top skateboard brands through chopping chop woodshop (Dsm) In Jan 2025 Leigh joined the ranks of Sidewalk distribution running global sales for them and Rolling Thunder and overlooking nineteen76

 

In light of what has happened a go fund me campaign has been launched, looking to raise £12,000 (£6,000 for each of his sons) to help cover some of the things that Leigh would have provided financially. Part of the money will go towards helping to pay for Eddie to carry on snowboarding, as he is currently competing and training with Snowboard England. He is also about to start to learn to drive and it would be great for him to be able to travel to training in the near future. Leigh also provided financial support for Axel and helped in his every day care, so it is important enough money is raised to be able to continue this. All these things Leigh would have provided financially. Leigh was such a special person to so many. He was one of life’s good ones and a truly amazing dad.
