Tappa sits down with world champion cyclist, Paralympian, and adaptive surfing legend Matt Formston—a man who proves every day that limits are made to be broken.

Born with vision loss, Matt shares his incredible journey through elite sport, from tearing it up on the track to charging big waves on a surfboard. He opens up about how he got into surfing (hint: there was a boogie board and a brutal rejection involved), and the mindset that’s helped him push boundaries in every direction.

The chat dives into everything from surfboard tech and high-performance training, to the importance of safety, communication, and inclusion in extreme sports. Matt also shares his work on a children’s book promoting accessibility, and the powerful role family plays in chasing big goals.

This is a story about sport, yes—but more than that, it’s about resilience, self-belief, and living proof that there really is no such thing as can’t.
