The story of how the project started and its mission

Welcome to Towla Bike!

At Towla Bike, we are driven by passion, innovation, and a relentless spirit of adventure. Founded by Matt Thola, Towla Bike combines the thrill of BMX with the cutting-edge technology of electric skateboards, creating a unique and exhilarating experience for riders of all abilities.

About Matt Thola:
Matt Thola’s journey is a testament to resilience and determination. At the age of 19, Matt was involved in a car accident that left him paralyzed. Despite this life-altering event, Matt’s adventurous spirit never wavered. Fueled by his love for adventure and a desire to inspire others, Matt co-founded 9 Lives Adventures.

9 Lives Adventures:
9 Lives Adventures is an innovative organization dedicated to providing extreme adventure travel opportunities for individuals with disabilities. The goal was to create a different approach to rehabilitation, empowering people through high-octane activities and community support. Some highlights from 9 Lives Adventures include:

  • Skydiving in Australia: Matt had the opportunity to skydive with Dale Elliott, the first paraplegic solo skydiver in Australia.
  • Paraplegic Bungee Jumping and Snowmobiling:** Organizing and participating in paraplegic bungee jumping tours and snowmobiling adventures.
  • Canada’s First Wheelchair Skate Comp: Hosting the inaugural wheelchair skateboarding competition in Vancouver, breaking new ground for adaptive sports in Canada.

Post-9 Lives Adventures:
After his impactful work with 9 Lives Adventures, Matt moved to Whistler, where he learned to sit-ski with the Whistler Adaptive Sports Program (WASP) and became a certified sit-ski instructor. His dedication to adaptive sports and helping others continued to grow.

The Birth of Towla Bike:
Matt’s journey took another exciting turn when he embraced van life, splitting his time between Canada and Mexico. Living in a camper van, Matt’s passion for action sports, particularly BMX and electric skateboarding, led to the creation of Towla Bike. Combining the best elements of both sports, Towla Bike offers a revolutionary experience, pushing the boundaries of what is possible on two wheels.

Our Mission:
At Towla Bike, our mission is to inspire and empower riders of all abilities to embrace the thrill of adventure. We believe in breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for everyone to experience the freedom and excitement of BMX riding enhanced by electric power.

Join Us:
We invite you to join us on this incredible journey. Whether you’re an experienced rider or new to the sport, Towla Bike is here to provide you with an unforgettable adventure. Explore our innovative bikes, participate in our events, and become part of a community that celebrates resilience, passion, and the joy of riding.
