Crashing, barefoot, one foot, ow!!

 My sister Kristin was hoping to find some good 'crashes' caught film? digital? captured. I was on the look out and spent many hours in the boat taking pictures of planned and most of the time, unplanned finishes. 

Here's the good, better, and best - also the most painful.

First up: Brianna

Melissa is next: a little more graceful.

Rachel:

Here's where the big kid fun begins. I went out to spot for my brothers. My dad is a very talented skier and likes to mix it up. So in years past, he's done many tricks. He's ridden a saucer (flat circle plywood and a camp chair), one foot in the rope, jumped the wake - from one side to the other and several others. It was time for my brothers to show their stuff.

Kraig:

 Brendan driving Abbey and Lucas

 The foot trick:

 Try 2:

 GOT IT!!!

Um, now how do I get my foot out?

 this is one way.....

 Mo, my faithful sidekick.

Steven's turn:

 Nailed it!

Oh wait, how do I get my foot out again? Kraig did it this way:

 it hurts just looking at it.

Now to do all of them in one run: 

Jump the wake

 foot up

 got the foot down - that should count for something....

 spoke too soon.

one more run:

 the barefoot - this is Steven's skill:

 So talented. :)
