Surfing Waves

Posted: **Sat Mar 26, 2005 2:05 am**

Jesse Billauer broke his neck surfing about 5 or 6 years ago. He wiped out and whacked his head on the bottom before he had a chance to get his arms out.

A few years ago, he ahd a golf match with Rob Machado (Legend) and talked 2 him about getting back into the water. He lies on the board and Rob pushes him when a wave comes.

This story came from step into liquid (not directly)...
You'll probably remember.

Those are the stories that give me aspiration. I dont know about the rest of you, but thats a truly inspirational story.

Rob Machado is now in my top people/surfers list.

So does he (Jesse) have full control of his body now, or is he still partialy paralized?

He can move his upper body, but his lower body is lost forever. He surfs lying down. the world is good.
