r/AdaptiveSports

Hey all I'm not sure if it's ok to post this here but if anyone can help me it's probably Reddit. I am a 43M with CP part time on crutches part time in my chair. I am a stand up comedy enthusiast. I swear I remember one of the more popular current comedians talking about doing crowd work they had a power chair user in the crowd. The way I remember the story the comedian skipped over the disabled individual. To which the disabled individual called them out for avoiding. The comedian then made a disability joke and moved on. I was watching Fluffy (Gabriel Iglesias) when I had the memory. I tried to look it up but the internet was no help. Does anyone have any recollection of what I could be talking about?? Please help.

Also if anyone knows any disabled comedians that I haven't seen yet I am always looking for recommendations. I know Josh Blue, AJ Wilkerson and Ahren Belisle, I'm sure I'm missing a bunch.

Hey all I am new to this sub but not new to Adaptive sports at all. I am 43M with CP. I have been monoskiing since age 5. I literally watched the entire sports change more than once. At my peak I was a Paralympic level racer. Anyway I have been out of the game for a few years and last winter I went and had a rough time. It was actually the catalyst for getting back into shape. To date I have lost 40lbs and I'm not quite done yet. My "current" equipment is a Revolution Pro Comp (told you I have been doing this for a while). Other than getting back into shape it was suggested to me by some dear friends that since I am done racing I might want to consider a more recreational ski (that was a blow to the old man's ego). Anyway I am wondering if anyone has any recommendations on what's out there. I am not a beginner and I want to be able to ski any terrain like I used to but my buddies are correct I'm not a racer anymore either. What should I check out? Also does anyone know anywhere on the East Coast I might be able to try some sleds before I just throw down that much cash?
