COLE ATENCIO | RENO, NV
Cole suffered a traumatic brain injury on a rail while urban riding in Salt Lake City on October 22, 2010. Cole spent a month in a medically induced coma, and when he awoke he had to relearn to walk, talk, eat, drink and live life. Cole has worked very hard to get where he is today, but the compensations when relearning to walk have taken a toll on his body. He applied for structural integration (a form of ROLFing) to help with his body misalignment.
