Chris Skiing at Lake Powell
Summer 2000
"Boy does this look like fun...NOT"
 |
Let's
see if I understand this. I get up on the roof of the houseboat
with this rope in my hands. Attached to this rope is a high powered
ski boat. I need to stand near the edge and give the guys in the
boat a yell when I am ready. |
| At
just the right instant I leap into the air. This leap is timed
to be at that instant just before the rope goes full tight and
tries to tear my arms off if I kept standing there. |
 |
 |
If
all goes as it should I hit the water on my butt, still hanging
onto the rope, going 35 to 45 MPH and then I spin on the axis
of my butt until I am aimed forward and stand up on my bare feet.
Sound pretty straight forward to me...where do I sign. |
| So that is
how you are suppose to end up. Seems like it would hurt the bare
feet or at least tickle, but then whatever you call fun. |
