Hardcore Sitting - Aaron Fotheringham
My name is Aaron Fotheringham, i am 17 years old, and i have Spina Bifida. I have never taken the time to research what Spina Bifida is so your guess is as good as mine! I started going to the skate-parks in 2000, i started off watching my older brother, but then he suggested that i try it in my chair. I started off by just dropping in and doing 180's out of the bowl, and then in 2006 i landed the first wheelchair backflip.
