Download or read book Driven to Ride written by Mike Schultz and published by Triumph Books. This book was released on 2022-01-18 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high-octane memoir of unflappable determination from an X-Games and Paralympics champion When "Monster" Mike Schultz won snowboarding gold in Pyeongchang, South Korea, it was the culmination of a decade of reinvention, in every sense of the word. Ten years earlier he'd lain bleeding on the side of a mountain after a devastating snowmobile accident. Now he stood tall on the Paralympic podium, supported by a prosthetic knee and foot of his own creation. Driven to Ride chronicles Schultz's improbable journey following a lifesaving amputation. From a place of debilitating pain and depression, he tapped into the same sense of adventure that had once taken him to the top of competitive snowmobile racing and followed it to the pinnacle of an entirely new sport: adaptive snowboarding. As he launched himself into the world of adaptive sports, Schultz's ambition was only tempered by his need for better equipment—prostheses that could withstand the vibrations of a motocross bike or the impact of rough terrain. His obsessive tinkering, without any formal engineering background, has presented yet another new path designing innovative prostheses for athletes and wounded military veterans. Inspiring and thrilling in equal measure, this is a singular story of uncommon strength, ingenuity, and seizing golden opportunities.

Book excerpt: "A piece of wood, two trucks, four wheels ... a skateboard. You start by rolling down a sidewalk, and end up rolling through life. For some the ride stops at the end of the street; for others the ride never ends. This book was written by those for whom the ride is never-ending: by the 15-year-old grom who falls asleep dreaming of skateboarding; by the 40-something "pad dad" you see at the local skatepark; by the women whose stories have never been told; and by the 73-year-old architect who didn't begin skateboarding until the age of 65. Over 170 stories and 200+ photographs. The 'everyman/everywoman' are accompanied by contributions from some 'notable' skateboarders, and other personalities from the skateboard world ... Some of the great skateboarding photographers have graciously contributed to the book."--Description from www.amazon.com
Download or read book The Hood written by Quietstrength and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This marvelous autobiography chronicles the unbelievable life of its author from his troubled childhood in Scotland through his glorious golden years in Whistler to his traumatic fall from grace in Vancouver, Canada. This magnificent manuscript is a true, factual real-life story that highlights and challenges pretty much everything we all take for granted in our modern lifestyles. Through his incredible journey, the author not only gives a blow-by-blow narrative of his roller-coaster life but also, from these experiences, presents a whole different perspective on this thing we all call life. It really is an astonishing story that the very few that have heard it compelled him to write as it could not only become an inspirational self-help book for those experiencing similar struggles in their own life but also a drastic warning of what can really happen in a heartbeat to anyone, anywhere, anytime on this planet we call home. Put simply, this is a phenomenal must-read autobiography novel that no matter who you are—male or female, rich or poor, sick or healthy, CEO or garbage collector—yes, everyone should read. From his genuinely sensational life story, Andrew explores the very core of our civilization and presents a very different perspective on what we all now use as measures of success like power, wealth, must-have toys, etc. His trials and tribulations, that simply have to be read to be believed, offer a very different alternative course for humanity to gain what we all privately seek deep down inside us all, namely acceptance, friendship, confidence, faith, hope, true happiness, and pure love, which in reality fly in the face of the more materialistic goals. But rather than being some naive, idealistic, ivory tower novel, everything is based on the real world. It is truly a monumental masterpiece that even the Hollywood scriptwriters would have a hard time of dreaming up. A truly wonderful book for the ages, and if it doesn’t change the world, it might just change your world.
