Tough race! easy mind set couldn't have done it without my sponsor @teampossabilities and the lord and my family who always gives me the strength when I am weak .
Greetings dear supporters and readers; I want to share how much I learned from my experience in Canada.

I knew the workouts would have to change when you change sports. And I did change my workouts, based on what the coach from the Brazil’s snow...
#iamamputee Training harder as I begin my year with the first race of the 2020 year feeling stronger every day
Hey guys, I bring great news from Canada, where I had 2 separate races in 2 days! This was an amazing experience and my first time racing Snowboard Cross (SBX), also a chance to accumulate points to enter the rankings.

Loma Linda University Team PossAbilities just did it again! Another dream came true in the form of a snowboarding leg! (and other action sports) Made by Biodapt, it was developed by Paralympic snowboarding champion Mike Schultz, and I always wanted one! This is a game changer. I now have a chance to compete on the same hardware as the top guys, so it’s all up to my training now. Now this is the deal: Control what I can control. Keeping fit...
