It was the end of a long journey for Milto and his family

Born into a skiing family, Michael Milton starting skiing from the time he could walk. Losing his leg to cancer aged nine, didn’t stop his love of skiing. He represented Australia at his first Paralympics, aged 14, in 1988, retired briefly in the 90s, then returned to win a clean sweep of all events in his class at the 2002 winter Games. In 2006, his family and his partner Penny were there for one more Games and some more Milto magic on the slopes.

Michael Milton went retro in his final race at the winter Paralympics

Bringing the curtain down on a long and successful career, in his last ever race that the winter Paralympics, Michael Milton wore the Australian team race suit from the 1994 winter Paralympics, when he won a gold, a silver and two bronze medals and became the first Australian to win a medal in every alpine skiing event at the same Games. The Torino winter Paralympics had been a tough competition for Milton but he had achieved his goal of winning a medal and was ready to move on with his life.

Slalom is the final event on the alpine skiing program and conditions were tough

Nick Watts competes in the final event on the alpine skiing program, the slalom, at the Torino winter Paralympics. Although Watts was a single leg skier, he competed with a prosthesis on his left leg after lots of experimentation, because the lower leg kept ‘getting in the way’ when he skied on a single leg. Conditions were tough for the slalom, making it difficult to differentiate between snow and sky.

Slalom is the final event on the alpine skiing program and conditions were tough

Nick Watts competes in the final event on the alpine skiing program, the slalom, at the Torino winter Paralympics. Although Watts was a single leg skier, he competed with a prosthesis on his left leg after lots of experimentation, because the lower leg kept ‘getting in the way’ when he skied on a single leg. Conditions were tough for the slalom, making it difficult to differentiate between snow and sky.

It was the end of a long journey for Milto and his family

Born into a skiing family, Michael Milton starting skiing from the time he could walk. Losing his leg to cancer aged nine, didn’t stop his love of skiing. He represented Australia at his first Paralympics, aged 14, in 1988, retired briefly in the 90s, then returned to win a clean sweep of all events in his class at the 2002 winter Games. In 2006, his family and his partner Penny were there for one more Games and some more Milto magic on the slopes.

Michael Milton went retro in his final race at the winter Paralympics

Bringing the curtain down on a long and successful career, in his last ever race that the winter Paralympics, Michael Milton wore the Australian team race suit from the 1994 winter Paralympics, when he won a gold, a silver and two bronze medals and became the first Australian to win a medal in every alpine skiing event at the same Games. The Torino winter Paralympics had been a tough competition for Milton but he had achieved his goal of winning a medal and was ready to move on with his life.

Michael Milton went retro in his final race at the winter Paralympics

Bringing the curtain down on a long and successful career, in his last ever race that the winter Paralympics, Michael Milton wore the Australian team race suit from the 1994 winter Paralympics, when he won a gold, a silver and two bronze medals and became the first Australian to win a medal in every alpine skiing event at the same Games. The Torino winter Paralympics had been a tough competition for Milton but he had achieved his goal of winning a medal and was ready to move on with his life.

Slalom is the final event on the alpine skiing program and conditions were tough

Nick Watts competes in the final event on the alpine skiing program, the slalom, at the Torino winter Paralympics. Although Watts was a single leg skier, he competed with a prosthesis on his left leg after lots of experimentation, because the lower leg kept ‘getting in the way’ when he skied on a single leg. Conditions were tough for the slalom, making it difficult to differentiate between snow and sky.

It was the end of a long journey for Milto and his family

Born into a skiing family, Michael Milton starting skiing from the time he could walk. Losing his leg to cancer aged nine, didn’t stop his love of skiing. He represented Australia at his first Paralympics, aged 14, in 1988, retired briefly in the 90s, then returned to win a clean sweep of all events in his class at the 2002 winter Games. In 2006, his family and his partner Penny were there for one more Games and some more Milto magic on the slopes.

Michael Milton went retro in his final race at the winter Paralympics

Bringing the curtain down on a long and successful career, in his last ever race that the winter Paralympics, Michael Milton wore the Australian team race suit from the 1994 winter Paralympics, when he won a gold, a silver and two bronze medals and became the first Australian to win a medal in every alpine skiing event at the same Games. The Torino winter Paralympics had been a tough competition for Milton but he had achieved his goal of winning a medal and was ready to move on with his life.

Slalom is the final event on the alpine skiing program and conditions were tough

Nick Watts competes in the final event on the alpine skiing program, the slalom, at the Torino winter Paralympics. Although Watts was a single leg skier, he competed with a prosthesis on his left leg after lots of experimentation, because the lower leg kept ‘getting in the way’ when he skied on a single leg. Conditions were tough for the slalom, making it difficult to differentiate between snow and sky.

It was the end of a long journey for Milto and his family

Born into a skiing family, Michael Milton starting skiing from the time he could walk. Losing his leg to cancer aged nine, didn’t stop his love of skiing. He represented Australia at his first Paralympics, aged 14, in 1988, retired briefly in the 90s, then returned to win a clean sweep of all events in his class at the 2002 winter Games. In 2006, his family and his partner Penny were there for one more Games and some more Milto magic on the slopes.

Michael Milton went retro in his final race at the winter Paralympics

Bringing the curtain down on a long and successful career, in his last ever race that the winter Paralympics, Michael Milton wore the Australian team race suit from the 1994 winter Paralympics, when he won a gold, a silver and two bronze medals and became the first Australian to win a medal in every alpine skiing event at the same Games. The Torino winter Paralympics had been a tough competition for Milton but he had achieved his goal of winning a medal and was ready to move on with his life.

Slalom is the final event on the alpine skiing program and conditions were tough

Nick Watts competes in the final event on the alpine skiing program, the slalom, at the Torino winter Paralympics. Although Watts was a single leg skier, he competed with a prosthesis on his left leg after lots of experimentation, because the lower leg kept ‘getting in the way’ when he skied on a single leg. Conditions were tough for the slalom, making it difficult to differentiate between snow and sky.
