Joe Testaverde goes on “surfin safari” in California
On October, 17, Joe Testaverde joined other handicapped surfing buffs in Newport Beach, Calfornia to kick off the Wheels 2 Water program started by the Life Rolls On Foundation.  Disabled surfers from around the country gather together once a month to get back in the surf or to begin surfing for those who have never surfed before. 

For Joe, who loved to surf before his injury, it was a dream come true.  “It was totally awesome to be back on the water and riding those waves again.  It was so much fun,  I didn’t want to leave”.

Life Rolls On Foundation was started by Jesse Billauer from Pacific Palisades, California, who was an avid surfer before suffering a spinal cord injury in 1996.
