(Youtube) Salomon Freeski TV S5 E13 Sit Ski Backflip
Uploaded by salomonfreeskiTV on Feb 6, 2012
Back in 2004, a flip on skis gone tragically wrong broke Josh Dueck’s back and left him as a T11 — full paraplegic. For the past 8 years one of his dreams has been to do a flip on snow again. On February 3, 2012, Josh became the first person to perform a backflip on snow in a Sit Ski!
Also, see Josh in the Documentary film, THE FREEDOM CHAIR
