But in a surprising twist, Koa’s surfboard has a unique trick up its sleeve-or rather, its tail. With a playful fart, the surfboard creates the perfect wave, propelling Koa back into action. As Koa rides this unexpected wave of magic, he encounters Jessie, a spirited surfer with a spinal cord injury who is training for the Paralympics.
