Damn.. lost his best friend, his wife AND his legs and he’s still so positive. Respect.

Robert is the man! Been following him since I became disabled 8 years ago, now I skate with a seat attached to my board after watching him and others shred for years

"Giving up is the easiest thing in life to do in my opinion, the hardest thing to do in life is, you kno, waking up, putting on your big boy pants and your shoes and, you kno, doing what you gotta do to get by in life" 💯💯💯

[@jeffgoodnough9704]

Not a lot of people on youtube would completely turn the spotlight over, and it's a pretty big gesture in an age where your identity is considered a brand... for anyone interested in cool stuff differently-abled peolle get up to, there's a documemtary called 'Murderball' that I can't recommend highly enough.

[@pauliewalnuts5241]
