Anthem Water Park
Here in Thailand I have been making a few friends. One day
my friends Mateo, Isabella, and Lucas invited my family over to go Wakeboarding
at Anthem Water Park. It was a long car drive, because we didn’t know the way
there.
Later when we arrived, my dad got tickets for Joshua and himself while James and I watched.
The Wakeboarding Park was made up of a lake that was split into
2 sections, the beginner side and the advanced side, separated by a wooden bridge. The
handles that you held on to were towed by an elevated, moving wire. The beginner
side had a smooth-going no-turn course while the advanced side had a fast-moving turning course with jumps and other tricks.
I choose to give it a try after I saw Dad and Joshua do it.
I mastered the beginner field quickly and even didn't fall of when the manager turned the speed really high.I almost made it on the advanced, but it was really tricky because of the super fast jerk in the launch-off. I fell every time.
James was also doing great, he was able to stay
up for a bit on the beginner course.
After two hours of fun, we all got tired, said our goodbyes and thank you's, and left.
Thanks for reading, Jacob

That sounds like a really fun way to learn how to wakeboard. I like the idea of being towed by a moving wire. I bet with more practice you and your brother would master the advanced lane too! What a neat thing to do with your friends and dad. By the way, how did your dad do on the courses? :)

ReplyDeleteDad got up on the very first try. Once, he fell off at the furthest point of the lake, however, and had to walk all the way back. :)
