AT Banter Podcast Episode 443 - Staying on the Board with Brett "The Blind Kid" Devloo

This week Lis, Rob, and Ryan welcome Brett "The Blind Kid" Devloo to the show, a skateboarder who navigates life with raw authenticity and zero apologies. When vision loss hit at 16, Brett didn't just adapt - he redefined what's possible on a skateboard. Join us as we peel back the layers of Brett's experience, exploring how he transformed a challenging diagnosis into a dynamic personal brand and skateboarding career. From small-town Manitoba to the West Coast skate scene, Brett shares candid stories about community, adaptation, and staying true to himself. Hear about his upcoming documentary, "Blind Corners", which captures the real, unvarnished moments of his skateboarding journey - including a memorable femur-breaking incident that became part of his story. Expect genuine laughs, unexpected insights, and a conversation that “stays on the board”.
