More and more I realize that surfing is much more than a sport

There isn't much that ever gets to me, but this actually kind of touched me. I guess you kind of have to surf to understand, but this blew me away, thought I'd share.

Damn that's awesome man! Thanks for sharing that. It amazes some of the things people can do with injuries or disabilities when they have the will and determination. I can't think of much that is more inspiring than that.

God bless him!

I can't think of much that is more inspiring than that.

I can't either. I've been baffled since I saw it.

I really don't know what to say after watching this video ... there are tears in my eyes (I can barely type) as my dad is a quad due to an illness over 20 years ago.

One thing, it seems, that folks who go on to do these kinds of activities have in common ... they never ask "why me?" They just get on with their lives and in so doing, enrich us all.

Damn, I'm proud of 'em and grateful thay allow us to participate in their victories!
