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.

“Je suis trop vieux pour commencer la voile.” “J’aurais dû commencer plus jeune…” Nous, on pense qu’il n’y a pas d’âge ni de genre pour se lancer ! Que tu aies 20, 40 ou 65 ans, tout le monde débute un jour. Le plus important, ce n’est pas ton âge, c’est juste d’oser commencer 🙌 La voile peut faire peur au début parce que ça paraît technique… mais une fois qu’on comprend les bases, c’est un monde incroyable qui s’ouvre à toi ✨ Et si ça te tente de te lancer, on a créé une formation en ligne pensée spécialement pour les débutants, avec tout ce qu’on aurait aimé savoir au départ Le lien est en bio ⬆️ Alors… qu’est-ce qui t’empêche de commencer ? 👀
