Professional skier, Josh Dueck, broke his back in 2004 when a skiing backflip went horribly wrong. But even after becoming paraplegic, the sportsman wouldn’t give up on his passion for skiing.

For eight long years, Josh has been practicing and building up his skills using a sit ski. Now he is ready to revisit the slopes, and become the first person to successfully complete a backflip on a sit ski. The video is featured on PowderMag, FreeSkier, and TheHighDefinite.
