JOSH DUEK – Para-Alpine Skiing

After pursuing his dream of being a professional skier Josh Dueck redirected his focus towards the next generation of ski superstars. As a competitive skier turned coach Josh was able to give back to the sport that inspired him over the years. One day while demonstrating a jump he miscalculated the speed and took a fall that would forever change his life. However with the positive support of friends and family he once again redirected his focus and climbed his way back up the mountain.

Josh is the reining four-time Canadian champion in Para-alpine skiing. He is actively pursuing his goal of becoming one of the best sit-skiers in the world and representing Canada at the Vancouver 2010 Paralympic Winter Games.

“I have learned through my experiences that anything is possible if you are willing to work for it” – Josh Dueck
