Ronnie Dickson

Ronnie Dickson started climbing 4 years ago after having his left leg amputated above the knee. The sport has given him a new found sense of competition in life. Climbing has been an interesting experience, going from climbing with just one leg to wearing a prosthesis for almost all of his climbs, Ronnie has learned how to improvise new beta on the rock. 
Although living in Tampa, Florida does not make things any easier, Ronnie sneaks out for road trips whenever he gets a chance. He is looking forward to this next year and helping to put on various disabled climbing clinics around the country.
