Mission

PARADOX SPORTS REVOLUTIONIZES LIVES THROUGH ADAPTIVE CLIMBING OPPORTUNITIES THAT DEFY CONVENTION.

About

Paradox Sports completed its second year of The Adaptive Climbing Initiative in partnership with The North Face. The goal of the program is to raise awareness about the importance of making climbing accessible and inspire climbing gyms to be trained in Paradox Sports adaptive climbing techniques.Fifteen climbing gyms received adaptive climbing equipment and technical training in 2018, and each is now more prepared to serve climbers with disabilities. Climbing gyms trained included facilities in major metropolitan areas including San Jose, Seattle, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York City,and Denver.Paradox Sports also worked in collaboration with Disabled Sports USA to offer adaptive climbing programs exclusive to disabled veterans and their families. The organizations partnered with the VA hospitals in San Antonio, Oklahoma City, and Minneapolis to train therapists and staff to facilitate climbing activities for injured veterans.The organization continued its focus on making U.S. National Parks more accessible and relaunched its Grand Teton National Park program after a three-year hiatus. Paradox partnered with No Barriers to provide a Teton climbing experience for 12 disabled veterans. The organization also provided a similar experience at Yosemite National Park over the anniversary of September 11.Through the Adaptive Climbing Initiative, more than 250 people were trained at the course and each now has the skills needed to facilitate adaptive climbing activities. More than 125 people with disabilities had the chance to try climbing for the first time.Paradox Sports' ambassadors Trevor Smith (silver), Aika Yoshida (gold) and Maureen Beck (gold) won medals at the Adaptive World Climbing Championships. Paradox Sports ambassadors Esha Mehta, Jessica Sporte, and James Scheri also competed in the event after all qualifying at the Adaptive Climbing National Championship.
