Duct Tape Surfing

The World

Pascale Honore thought her surfing days were over when she was paralyzed 18 years ago.

But this year, avid surfer Tyron Swan thought better of that, and decided to try to simply duct tape Pascale to his back and hang ten.

The experiment worked, and now the two are headed on a cross-country road trip to a Western Australian tourist hotspot famous for its nature and surfing.

Can you tell us its name? We hear from Pascale and Tyron about their friendship and wave-riding.
