Justin Beauchesne has loved skateboarding ever since he started playing the Tony Hawk video game when he was a kid. But it’s a sport that he was told to never participate in.

“I had meningococcemia when I was 18 months old. That caused three limbs to be amputated, and I have some bone deformity in my leg,” he explained. “Thanks to all the haters, naysayers and the people who said I could never do anything. That really drove me to be successful.”
