Meet Adaptive Athlete: Eric Wang

Originally from Los Altos, CA, Eric has always been an avid outdoorsman with a passion for staying active. In May 2022, a rock climbing accident resulted in a T12 spinal cord injury, reshaping how he approaches the sports he loves — but not slowing him down.

 

Since his injury, Eric has remained just as active, finding new ways to stay connected to the activities that drive him. Through events hosted by Reno Adaptive and High Fives, he discovered a strong community of athletes pushing limits and redefining possibilities.

 

At ATF, Eric is focused on building strength, improving his endurance, and training to ride faster and longer as he continues to pursue his passion for cycling and outdoor adventure.
