They Will Surf Again, a no-cost program underwritten by Life Rolls On and generous sponsors, is the most popular program of Life Rolls On. Injured athletes from around the country gather together for a day of surfing! Some have not surfed since their injury, some have never surfed, some surf all the time despite their varying mobility. TWSA connects dozens of volunteers, with a handful of injured surfers, together for a day of excitement, joy, and best of all, surf! Safety precautions and experienced watermen (and women), along with lifeguards will be present. No prior surfing experience is necessary. Quality of Life surveys may be required for future participants.

Run by LRO Board Member Richard Yelland, TWSA was born many years ago with a San Diego to Santa Cruz surfing expedition raising funds and awareness for spinal cord injury research. TWSA has since grown into a bi-coastal outreach program, that is also major component of the US Open of Surfing, the largest surfing competition in the world!

The next TWSA will be held on April 29, 2007. For more information regarding the TWSA, Please visit Liferollson.org
