We're a worldwide community of volunteer engineers making sure every para-athlete, of every background and in every country, has equipment designed and built precisely for them.
Who we serve
We work with sprinters, throwers, wheelchair players, cyclists, rowers, archers, and everyone in between. No two bodies move the same way, so no two pieces of equipment we make are the same either.
What we build
Every piece is designed around one athlete, then 3D-printed and delivered at no cost. Here's how a request becomes a part in someone's hands.
We meet the athlete, watch how they train, and pin down exactly what stands between them and their best.
Our volunteer engineers model the part in CAD, iterating on fit, weight, and strength until it's right.
Every design is 3D-printed in durable materials chosen for the sport, then tested before it ships.
The finished piece reaches the athlete at no cost, and the design stays open for anyone to improve.
Our mission
Every para-athlete deserves equipment that truly fits, not off-the-shelf gear that almost works, not compromises made because custom manufacturing is expensive. Gear built for their body, their sport, and where they want to take it.
We are working with Jedediah Hinkley, Director for U.S. Nordic Sports and the American Canoe Organization, on a para-canoe grant for 3D-printed seats. The proposal is headed to the U.S. Olympic Committee.
Official partners with NCHPAD. We work alongside high schoolers to engineer Paralympic equipment from start to finish, taking each piece from modeling to 3D printing to iteration.

Backed by an Awesome Foundation grant that funds the materials and printing behind our builds, so every piece still reaches the athlete at no cost.
