Rai skied in his first slalom waterskiing tournament on Saturday. What a spot - right in downtown Wolfeboro, and it's a little cove specifically for use by the Abenaki Water Ski Club. Start time was bright and early at 8 am, and boys skied first (woo hoo, love the starting spot!). There were only two other guys in his group, and because Rai wasn't seeded, he went first - which was great for him, no pressure about what the other guys were doing. He started at 21 mph and 15' off, and made four full runs; the crash came at the third buoy of his fifth run. I have no idea how they score these things - speed / rope length / # of buoys - all martian to me. Results should be available soon, so we'll see. |
