Los Angeles (myFOXla.com) - Fifteen-year-old Patrick Ivison suffered a spinal-cord injury in a car accident when he was 14 months old and he has been paralyzed since but he has not given up on his goal to walk again.

To raise money for Ivison's physical therapy, which is not covered by insurance, it was suggested that the pair take up surfing.

So with the help of his best buddy, Richochet, the pair hit the waves.
