Sit Ski Backflip

If you haven’t seen Josh Dueck’s incredible sit ski backflip make sure to check out the video below.  After a traumatic front flip left Josh paralyzed from the waist down he decided to keep his passion for skiing alive by mastering the sit ski.  Josh soon went on to accomplish many feats in racing including winning the Candadian Championships in 2007, the World Championships in 2009, placing second in the Paralympics in 2010,  and first in Monoskier X in the Winter X games in 2011.  Josh also recently helped film the documentary The Freedom Chair which showcases some of the best freestyle sit skiing out there. Look for it on Salomon’s Digital Magazine for iPad here.  It should be a truly inspiring film.
