Part of that might be because he has faced a lot of personal tragedies in his life, having lost both his sister and father in quick succession. Most is probably due to the fact that Jake really seems to love his life. He's one of the stars of a wildly successful reality show, he recently started his own coffee company, and he still gets to dip into his former skateboarding life by working with brands he respects. But at the end of the day, it's not what Jake is doing, it's who he does it with.
