......and thanks for stopping by. My name is Darwin Holmes and I am an Extreme Sports Athlete, meaning I am heavily involved in many types of wheelchair sports, such as Football, Baseball, and Basketball. I am also a Gold Medal, Olympic Athlete. But, the sport I enjoy the most and created is Wheelchair Skateboarding. Yes, Wheelchair Skateboarding!
Over 4 years ago, after being paralyzed from mid-back, down, I chose not to sit around (YEAH OK!!!) and do nothing with my life. Since I was a skater in the ‘70’s and early ‘80’s, before going off to the Army, I decided to try my hand at it again, but in my wheelchair. Now, I ride all the big stuff along with the able body pros that are good friends of mine like, Bob Burnquist, Bruno, and many other greats.
You can view more information, pictures and video clips about me by navigating thru my website here so feel free to browse around.
Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you enjoy my site.
Special Thanks to ESPN and Chris Shiepock and Shawn Seward.
