No Legs, No Limits

by

Skateboarder Kanya Tesser was born without legs

Kanya Sesser is nothing short of inspirational. Born without legs in Pak Chong, Thailand, she was abandoned by her family just one week after birth. She spent a year as an orphan before being adopted by a couple from Portland, Oregon, who took her to the United States. 

Since then, Kanya has excelled at sports such as skateboarding, skiing, surfing, hiking, tennis, athletics and swimming. She is currently training for the USA Paralympics Track and Field Team, hoping to compete in Rio 2016. She's also an accomplished lingerie model, and lives by the phrase of #NoLegsNoLimits. We think she's pretty damn right, and this footage proves it.
