ABOUT THIS EPISODE
TAA 059: Meet Chris Kunkeler, above-knee amputee and panel player from the Netherlands
What does it take to begin again after amputation? Chris Kunkeler joins me for an open conversation about a carefully considered decision, a goodbye party for his leg, and the new possibilities he has found through snowboarding, kitesurfing, padel, and paragliding.
But this isn’t just a story about determination. Chris and I explore the people and communities that make adaptive sport possible—and why access, prosthetics, and inclusion are responsibilities we share. Tune in for a thoughtful, hopeful conversation about taking a first step and what can follow.
