We go snow-skiing with Able Management Group, who have developed equipment to make skiing possible for people with a disability. Nick Fenwick (AMG President & Co-founder) and Dean Sheppard (AMG Vice President) speak about not only snow skiing but the other activities in which they are involved: camping, fishing, swimming, 4 wheel driving, off-road buggying, mountain biking and paragliding. AMG may be contacted at their website at www.ablemanagement.com.au
