I get set and give the signal
The take off is in flight
I pull myself atop the board
With all my strength and might

I place the ropes handle
In the crook of my left arm
To ajust the strap across my knees
False Sense Of Safe From Harm

Now I'm ready to realy blast
And do what I love best
Tuck down low, go real fast
with my arms pulled to my chest

Flip from side to side I do
And cause large walls of sray
Staying low when I do
My eyes an inch away

When I crash, I am asked
And of course I say Please
For theres nothing that I've ever done
Like the speed beneath my knees

Thank You
~~~Connie~~~

Connie -- probably a similar rush to bee-lining down a slope with your eyes closed, wanting to do it again...? ;->
