Bosse was swimming with friends at a beach when he dove headfirst into murky water that was unexpectedly shallow."I will 100% surf again. There is no doubt," Bosse said. But ever since, the 24-year-old has been determined to regain his strength and adapt in hopes of getting back in the water. Just weeks ago, thanks to his hard work and a team of volunteers, his dream came true, this time, on a custom-made surfboard.
"Amazing! It was perfect. It felt like I was at home again," Bosse said. "The feeling of riding a wave is like no other. After the first five, I'm kind of like, 'Alright, I'm getting a little cold. I think I am ready to go in.' But then, I'm like, 'No! One more! One more!'""You can overcome anything if you set your mind to it," Bosse said.
