That was just enough room for the boat to gain enough speed so that I could simply step onto the ski and take off, without the boat pulling me over onto my face.
The beach babes go wild? You've got me dreaming about that for this summer. I'm envisioning making a big impression on all those cute young babes barely in their 50s. Well, it's a matter of perspective.

Your Neighbors will be awaiting the ski performance and ensuing rush of babes to the shoreline for sure......
