NEW YORK (GaeaTimes.com) — After nearly 8 months of grueling rehab and therapy, snowboarder Kevin Pearce is ready to jump back on his skateboard. He and his mother made a follow-up appearance on the “Today Show” to discuss his ongoing recovery from a devastating brain injury this past December.

Pearce had suffered a severe head trauma on a double cork attempt gone array in the halfpipe at Park City. He has recovered at a remarkable pace. Although Pearce said his reaction time and vision is not what it once was, but plans to continue muscular exercises to better his eyesight. The interview given by Kevin really sets an example for any sports athlete who has ever worried about or suffered a severe injury doing something they love.

Let us hope that Kevin returns back within very short time. All the best to him for his future!
