Jetskiing!

Jetskiing was super fun. I was nervous because on Thursday the weather channel said there was a chance of thunderstorms on Saturday. But on Friday it changed to partly cloudy. On Saturday it was actually sunny blue skies though!

Tarrah and Lawreen came this time (and Tarrah had a wedding to go to the night before! She’s a trooper). It was lots of fun. I tried to teach them how to wakeboard/wakeskate but it’s very tough. Reminded me of my first time. I probably looked just like that. I couldn’t manage to get up long enough to stand on the wake skate so I decided to try the wakeboard because I haven’t tried it in 2 summers. The wakeboard seemed way easier somehow. I got up and stayed up until the rope got some slack (jetski pull is not consistent like a prop boat). So I think I went in 20 ft increments or so.

Josh and Ryan are crazy on the tube and driving the jetski with the tube. They like to go 30-35mph and swerving to fling the tube out all over the place. I, on the contrary prefer a 20-25mph tube ride, but can’t have one with them driving I gotta have Tarrah or Lawreen drive the jetski next time. At one point they were going so fast with me on the tube that Ryan fell off the back of the jetski! See?! way too fast/swervy.

The highlight was definitely when Ryan flew off the tube and his water shoe went flinging off into the air. It was like a mini explosion tube went up, Ryan went up and shoe went up and all fell. Totally reminded me of Dane Cook’s joke- “The guy goes flying into the air, his shoes flew off. When you get hit by a car, sometimes your shoes will fly off.”

The tube popped again. I guess we didn’t have a fun time unless it pops heh.We gotta repair it again when we get home.

Good times. I’m very sore today but it was worth it
