Too Extreme just take some comfort in that whatever happens in won't be as bad as my run at Pine Lakes at the weekend

You know it's bad when you have fallen on your first trick, the boat comes round to pick you up, and the photographer and judges offer great words of wisdom like "no pressure then" and "when you do that grab, you'll get more points if you land it"

(Northern Monkey I know who you are now!)

And all I can say is the run got worse from that point.

I now have for sale one wakeboard (broken from where i kicked it)
One shortie wetsuit (ripped, was in too bad a mood to use the zip)
One Line, (only one knot, a sort of noose where i tried to hang myself last night)
One wakeboard & Waterski Rashvest, which I accenditally took home as I threw all my kit into my car, which will be returned at the next stop (if anyone from Wakeboard UK reads this)

If I were you i wouldn't buy any of it, clearly it was all defunct and the combination of kit that I used seemed totally unable to land any type of trick.

Part from that (and the fact that it rained most of saturday, I had a sh!t qualifying run aswell, and got stuck in two hours worth of traffic coming home last night) what a great weekend

Anyone know where I can buy a Knee board or a trick ski?

thanks for that! Its on cable not boat though!

I tried the kicker as a test run and got up it but didnt land!¬ Felt good thoug! will be on a natural high for the week then!

hey i said if your going to go to all the trouble of doing a mint grab like that you could at least have landed it!
did you not get up and do a big 3 at the end of your first pass?

were u a judge then!?

[chaterboy]

The appreciation of the grab was welcomed, I think the reason I fell on it was I was thinking when I landed "That was nice big and clean, great first triiiiiiiiiick, aghhhhh, splat"

Maybe I should have been thinking "BEND YOUR KNEES YOU MUPPETT OR YOU'LL BOUNCE OUT OF THIS"

Live and learn, better get some practise b4 Haverigg
