Mexico participated in the ninth Winter Paralympics in Turin, Italy, entering one athlete. Mexico was the only nation participating in the Paralympics that did not send a delegation to the Torino Olympics.
Alpine skier Armando Ruiz (LW 11, b. August 27, 1963), a lawyer from Mexico City, competed in the giant slalom, finishing 41st out of 41 finishers in the men's sitting category with a combined two-run adjusted time of 5:43.45, nearly four minutes behind winner Martin Braxenthaler of Germany and nearly three minutes behind 40th-place finisher Xavier Barios of Andorra. It was the first ski race he had ever competed in, and he received a huge ovation from the crowd after completing each run.
Ruiz was one of the 3 men finalists for the Whang Youn Dai Overcome Prize of the Paralympic Games.
