Tristan Smyth

Tristan Smyth has risen to the national stage in track recently, becoming the first British Columbian to post three gold medals at the Western Canada Summer Games. He was led to wheelchair sports during a rehabilitation stint at GF Strong after becoming injured in a skateboarding accident, and is a Bridging the Gap alumni. This up-and-comer has his eyes on the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games and has recently taken to social media to increase his exposure. He's now being coached by Paralympic silver medalist Kelly Smith. With his work ethic and determination, expect big things out of Tristan Smyth.
