wheee!! went wakeboarding today after school..
hmm..let me first tell ya bout the unlucky stuffs that happened..
first of all..the monthly thing came..hmm..how unlucky isnt it?
yep..but anyway stil went into the water. O.o
hmm..then a more ridiculous thing hapened.
i shall not disclose it as u may not wanna hear it.. yucks!

den after that, as joween and i took too much time changing into our swimming costumes, we missed the bus.
so we had no choice but to take a cab all the way to punggol sea club which costs bout 10 bucks..
haiz..jus our luck..

okay enough of those.

so when we reached there they were already showing a video on wakeboarding..
den after the supa short briefing, we started proceeding to the boats and started wakeboarding.

there was only one guy in my grp and of cos he had to take the initiative to go first.. can tell that he was actually quite nervous and embarrased. (cos he kept failing to do it) poor guy... however we cheered him on.. yeah.. in the end he only managed to squat on the board. but it was considered very good for a beginner..

so after that my friends tried it... i was the last few.. cos i was too scared..
but the feeling was great when i went down to the water.
cos i was floating there wif the life jacket on in the cool water.. hahax.. so relaxing. but that was only for a little while..
cos afta that started wakeboarding.. i did an lousy job.. cos i didnt manage to actually stand on the board and ski..haiz.. sad :-(
oh well so i tried my best to hold on to the handle which connects the boat..
but the water current was too strong.. and i kept falling into the water..haiz kinda sad cos the instructor said i kept repeating the same mistakes.. but i think i tried my best lar.. so.. well.. i shall try harder nx week...

hmm... so now i noe that wakeboarding is not acually as easy as i thoght it is..
and not that scarrie also lar.. hahax.. so those who tried to intimidate me before that, let me tell you this: im not afraid anymore! lol.. im such a brave girl arent i? hahax.. oki shall stop bhb-ing..

now i shall gv u guys some tips on how to wakeboard..
1) most importantly: balance urself
2) keep ur arms straight. or bent alittle.
3) always lean bckwards
4) use ur leg to control the board.(depends on which leg u wan)
5) don stand on the board immediately; gradually move fr squating position to standing position.
6) push ur legs down when u r standing up.
7) always tighten the tension in ur arms.. cannot loosen it or u'll topple..(this is serious k? cos this is the mistake i kept repeating..)
8) tip-toe and use ur thigh muscle to help u stand
9) do not look down to the water while skiing.
10) relax urself..

yea.. so these are the 10 important pts u hv to rmb while wakeboarding..
so now u noe its not easy huh? kekek.. well wish me good luck for my nx week's course.. gotta try really hard.. yepp.. so jia you everyone for ur own sports programme k? gd luck to all (.^-^.) kambatek!!
