hahaha... thats what I told my frens last weekOriginally posted by p|gGyPeN:It might be frightening to potential learners out there abt wakeboarding but still i've gotta tell you gals/guys tt
THE WATER IS A CRUEL TEACHER ...
Miss a step/pull or movement and you'll be severely punished and trust me, IT HURTS!
But well, it's all abt learning from your mistakes ... so as long as you learn from them, it's not a prob.
Something else abt wakeboarding is that
Even if you can't ride, at least LOOK GOOD.
After I'd fall and swim back to the bank... climb up, carried the wakeboard strike a pose... LOOK GOOD -
eh, i cant stand as well...
think my instructress kinda like *arhh...*
luckily my guy frends are more engross with her than seeing me falling flat ...
hehe...

tot speedboat is more appropriate due to the speed n weight?
-
Mayb its the instructor
I had a good one on my 1st ride ...
and i got up on the 1st pull ... Satisfaction level was ... wow
but i've been riding on and off, tt's why not much improvements ... -

Definitely ... like I said, I am "alive" for a few days after strenuous activities.Originally posted by p|gGyPeN:Pain reminds us tt we're alive ..
After that, I hibernate into my painless world for the next few months, often promising myself not to feel so "alive" again.
But then life gets boring and then I wanna feel "alive" again ....
Hmm, maybe we all have that need for pain once in a while. Just that the frequency and desire for pain wanes as we age ... -
very tempting... very very tempting...
but i got school on sat...

In fact, you're not supposed to pull at all.Originally posted by JoJo-Ice:Maybe mine doesnt have the patience...hmmm

Actually I wanna put it on sunday but looking at the trend now sentosa outing is more likely to be on sunday. Afraid that it might crash on the same day. So maybe lets play by ear 1st til one week before the event date than confirmOriginally posted by s|nNeD:very tempting... very very tempting...
