First above knee amputee to ski cross country style standing on both feet thanks to his own invention of a specialized prosthetic knee (the XT9 ESPK) device which mimics quadriceps function.

    • That's pretty great

      This is amazing! Most AK amputees cross country ski in a sit ski and have to push themselves the whole way with just their arms. This guys is actually skiing with normal technique and doing it better than many skiers with two legs I might add.
      Way to go man!
