In this episode, we sit down with Alex Cairns, a former Paralympian sit-skier whoโs now carving his own path in adaptive mountain biking. From technical climbs to Squamishโs iconic slabs, Alex shares how his approach to sport is rooted in calculation and control rather than reckless abandon. We explore his journey from ski racing to MTB, the nuances of adaptive trail design, and how mindset plays a critical role in both performance and progression. This oneโs packed with insight, grit, and a good dose of trail talk.
