The Spanish Skater Who Went Blind But Continues Skating And Giving Life Lessons To The Youngest

The skater with visual disabilities Marcelo Lusardi gives an exhibition to the students of the skate workshop organized by the City Council of Noreña in Asturias. The athlete has not gotten off his skateboard despite losing his vision due to a disease called Leber's optic neuropathy. This Argentine-born Spaniard overcame depression, plucked up his courage and went down to the plaza with his skateboard and his white cane to regain his passion for skating.
