So while wakeskating today i totally ruined myself several times. Firstly, while jumping the wake heelside my back foot came off the board and the front foot kept going stretching my groinal region to the point of scrotum ripage(exageration, just pulled my groin). But not wanting to waste the glassy water i try as hard as i can to shake it off and start riding again. A few minutes later i fell again while doing a backside 180. After completing the 180 i begin to slide around unwrapping myself when i catch an edge and land directly on my left ear. The pain was terrible as water entered what felt like my brain and so my dad took me to the doctors. apparently i hit the old ear drum and may not regain my hearing in old lefty for a day or so and also theirs some water in my inner ear canals that throws off my balance and i keep getting dizzy and falling over for no reason at all, which my parents seem to think is hysterical. Anyways i thought id share an interesting day with you. Dont feel bad for me though i think old lefty should be good as new by tomorrow.

haha St.ClaireSkate, watch out for water leaking out of your ear while you sleep, if there is any 2mrw, just throw out the pillow case or something.

last summer I was trying to clear the wake with out a tower and an extra long rope, i started to accidentally turn backside and immediately kicked the board out so I wouldnt get bagged. BIGG MISTAKE!!!! water instantly shot right up my @$$ Shocked

causing me to $#!% water for a couple hrs. Mad

this is a message to all wakeskaters in the world. WAKESKATING STYLE ENEMAS HURT EXCRUCIATINGLY BAD! Sad

i used to always get water in my ears. the water where i used to ride was so dirty, one night i woke up with the worst pain ever and had to go to the doctors and get some perscription ear drops and i had to use them the rest of the summer. i thought the whole left side of my head was gonna explode.
