SURF DOG RICOCHET INSPIRES AMRLESS WOMAN TO SURF

Another message of hope and perseverance inspired by Ricochet the surfing dog:

 

SURF DOG RICOCHET INSPIRES AMRLESS WOMAN TO SURF!

Sabine Becker was born without arms. She uses her feet for daily tasks.

One day, on Ricochet's Facebook page, she asked "Do you think I can surf without arms". Ricochet answered YES! And referred her to Ampsurf.
A few weeks later, Sabine drove 1100 miles to attend a surf camp in California. She DID surf!, but is also faced with disappointment while there. This is her video highlighting her & Ricochet's journey of inspiration together.
