Don't try this at home!











I laugh now, but not then....This is your classic wake board wreck. Probably the last ride of the season, wanted it to be epic, and darn it it was. I dock started and was riding great, hittin my tricks bigger than usual. The boat was going twenty one mph, Shan was driving and I pulled out to the side and carved hard back at the wake, (harder then ever), I was going to get some big air, and actually I look good until I landed. These images are from the video Robbie shot. They are not very good, but funny to look at. Unfortunately when I landed I face planted. Fell off the front. I hit so hard it dislodged my board from my feet, normally it would take a lot of effort to get your feet out of your laced up bindings, I knocked out both contacts, and it rang my bell like it was high noon. In the video it happens so fast that you hardly see it, but you can hear everyone in the boat moaning, and groaning when I face planted. I'm fine now, and Chris and I wake skated later after the crash. The next day - this is only what hurt on my body.... jaw, neck, back, (upper and lower), eyes, fingers, toes, nose, mouth, stomach, all internal organs, shoulders, arms, knees, feet, left elbow, right ear, right and left pinky's, left arm pit, hind legs, all of my skin, pride and my aching glutinous maximus.
