Jack and I stayed over night at the lake after a little 5 Guys (really 4 guys and one girl) with the family and then we all went to see Harry Potter #77777777777. Decent enough movie, not as clumsy or dark as some of the others. Jack and I hit the water in the morning, Jack got some nice clean water for a change. No video as the camera man was driving. Jack got his first 180 jump...but, no video, never happened! A few nice face plants as well. Kid is trying new things pretty aggressively, gotta give him props.
After lunch we went back out and Neighbor Dave joined us. Jack got his 180 jump on video (see Bluemedia page or latest video - soundtrack was removed by youtube BBBBOOOOO). I continued my quest for good jumps. First few I had made mental notes about trying some things differently to increase the air. After a few, all my previous (bad) habits snuck back in. Video of some of the better attempts (better jumps or better carnage). In the afternoon, the water was angry as you will see in much of the videos, lots of boats and a pretty high wind for a 90+ August day.
