Facing adversity became a reality for Tyler Turner long before 2020 rolled around. Ty lost both his feet in a skydiving accident 3 years ago. Since then he’s become a pro at living “a new normal.” His injuries altered the course of his life dramatically, taking away many of his choices, while simultaneously opening up incredible opportunities. This year alone Ty competed in the ISA World Para Surf championship; he joined the NextGen Canadian Para Snowboard team and is trying to qualify for the next Olympics (whenever they may be…); he bought a live-aboard sailboat with his girlfriend, Kayleen, and started a YouTube channel about it; and with the support of High Fives Foundation and Project Uprising he became the first bilateral amputee to fly a wingsuit. If you ask Ty, he’ll tell you that he spends a lot of time on the couch in pain and that he isn’t trying to inspire anyone. He’s just doing what he’s always done: trying to enjoy life, pushing boundaries, and seeing what’s possible. What unites skiers and snowboarders, including guys like Ty, is a spirit of perseverance and adaptability. These sports are a constant practice of balancing risk and joy within shifting conditions, and ultimately picking the best route. Some days we ride huge lines of deep powder, other times the mountains tell us to stay home and to wait for a better day. All the while the goal is never adjusted: feel alive and have fun with the people you love! We are stoked to support Ty's journey.

Velejando de vento em POPA no Delta 17 - Lagoa da conceição - Florianópolis SC Velejar de vento em popa é uma modalidade emocionante e desafiadora da vela em que o vento sopra diretamente por trás do barco, impulsionando-o de forma rápida e eficiente. Essa forma de velejar permite alcançar altas velocidades e experimentar uma sensação de liberdade única. Durante uma velejada de vento em popa, as velas são ajustadas de forma específica para capturar a força do vento. A vela principal é içada completamente, enquanto a genoa, vela da proa, é posicionada do lado oposto ao vento. Essa configuração permite que o barco seja impulsionado pelo vento de maneira poderosa. Uma das principais vantagens de velejar de vento em popa é a emoção de alcançar velocidades impressionantes. Com o vento impulsionando o barco por trás, é possível sentir a pressão nas velas e cortar as ondas rapidamente, experimentando uma sensação de velocidade e adrenalina.
