For a brief moment in time, nana never felt more alive.
I know a couple wheelchair users who would send it. There are guys here in medellin that ride their wheelchairs in the skate parks.
I wonder how those guys ended up in wheelchairs.
About to say, some guy in a wheelchair with the ol Popeye forearms is gonna break records on that ramp.
I would love to see that, is competitive wheelchair skateboarding a thing? Because I’d watch the shit out of that!
It’s a thing. It’s called WCMX like BMX but wheelchair instead of bike.

Fuck, that’s amazing! That guy is pretty impressive.
The “let me just jump into a new wheelchair” was fantastic
i was digging the grind down the center of the chair
but i wish he wouldn’t do flips, those chairs are heavy and he barely had clearance
The chairs are essentially full suspension bmx frames and wheels in the form of a wheel chair. They’re legit.
awesome vid but that dude is chasing a serious injury
The stair looks more dangerous tho.

Pfff… Goddamn fact checkers and their party pooping…
When its wet like this it would serve as a great slide. Just take some plastic sheet or something and down you go :)
Just make sure nobody is on the way up/down lmao
Checkbox compliance
if they added a handrail it would probably be usable

What’s wrong, McFly? Chicken?
Just need some redbull
Cowabunga, it is.
BRB, launching a disabled person across the carpark.
This looks not so safe for people who aren’t in a wheelchair.
