Trent Ferrier loved an active outdoor lifestyle, surfing waves on his boogie board or paddling in a kayak along the River Murray closer to home.
Now he s sold those reminders of the life he used to enjoy after a freak accident in the surf at Port Elliot left him with spinal injuries.
His energy is now channelled into something he once took for granted walking.
As an incomplete quadriplegic, which means his spinal cord was crushed but not severed, he has no feeling from his chest down and during his rehabilitation was warned that walking would not be possible.
