The bail out bros.
when i think back to a time in which i was faced with the decision to bail or not to bail, one incident comes to mind immediately, the one year i went out to my best friends cabin and we decided to go tubing. one day we were looking for something new and exciting to try out at his cabin, having been tubing and wake-boarding already we thought that would be a good place to start. after a few runs Justin had the genius idea to get the two smaller tubes and have tube wars at the same time versus each-other, so we went out and began our battles, not knowing of our impending doom. as we fought each other and tried to knock the other off of his tube and spray water in his face, but his father decided to create the wave to end all waves and then pull us through it- possibly sending us 20+ feet in the air to our watery defeat. knowing full well what was about to occur i moved away from Justin and went in for one more attack, an attack that would save us both. i launched myself over the wake towards him and jumped to tackle him off his tube, catching his chest with the blow of an hockey check we both went into the lake, seconds later we both see the tubes flipped over in the air and the boat tearing away from where we were. as it circled back i told Justin i got him good and that i won the wars. he accepted this ruse and i played it off as if i hadn't just bailed out and taken him with me to cover my back..
