Hi, I noticed you are using a C-leg. One of the things I want is to come back skiing, but I have a 3R80, one could use a C-leg to ski? Thanks

Adaptive Snowboarders are awesome anytime in my book.
I've got an amputee snowboard vid of my best friend and Bro Buddy. He's AKA to but can't do the prosthetsis. So he's snowboarding with out one on one hell of a jimmy rigged contraption he made himself it's pretty sweet.

Hey Mark, good to see you out there, come join us next year at snowboarding nationals.Good to see another amputee rider.
Mark, You give me hope! My son is an AKA and his dream is to smowboard again. Is there a way he can contact you to get some details on your knee and the company that built it for you? Thanks for being so inspirational!

Hey Mark...
love the video!!!! MADE ME FEEL BETTER
I am a cancer survivor of bone cancer. I am now faing a amputee as my knee fusion didn't work. I would love to ask you a few questions about the sports you do with a above knee amputation.

Anytime, I am also involved in whitewater kayaking (class IV rapids so far...I hope to better than soon) and hope to hit the trails mtn biking again this season with Brian Bartlett's leg (see his video).
I used to run cross-country, so running is also on the list. That's about it though.. for now :)
Whenever you think there's something you want to do or have questions about, let me know and I'll provide answers -- real answers as to how you can make it happen.
Cheers!
Mark

Just a standard C-Leg with the flexion turned all the way up to where I can barely bend it. I am working with some people on something a little more intense for next season.
