Hurray! Had a go at wakeboarding for the first time today!!! muahahas. The event was organised by my varsity's Wakeboarding Club, for us freshies to have a try at wakeboarding. Previously had wanted to go wakeboarding with Leo, Ben, etc, budden that trip failed to materialise in the end. Nevertheless, I did manage to try wakeboarding! [Next time, it'll be parachuting & probably bungee jumping??? Hee!]


I didn't expect the sport to be so tough! It has always seemed so easy from the shows, and well, today's experience proved me otherwise. Haha. I drank gallons of seawater, trust me. Actually all I had to do was to relax and let the boat pull me up, but somehow, I think I used my arm muscles to pull myself up and now as I'm typing on the keyboard, my hands are so nuah (read jelly-ish)! Hee hee. Balancing was also another problem, although it was subsequently better after a while. At some point, I even managed to balance on my wakeboard on the sea even after I let go of the handle! Amazing huh? =)))



Here are some pictures!!

*Credits to Chun Ming for helping me snap those pics. haha.*

The entire event started at around 9am and ended at around 1pm. Woah! Yup, as usual, Jerica's now tanned. or dark. or chao-tar; whatever you wish to call it. Hahas. In any case, wakeboarding is really really fun! Everyone should try it.


I wanna go Batam/ Bintan for their wakeboarding trip & course!!!
