Hey, my name is Rachelle. During the summer I spend most of my time at the lake knee boarding and wakeboarding.

   I have been knee boarding for about three years now. In my first summer of boarding, I mastered a 180 and a 360. Last summer was great because I set a record of consecutive 360's. My dad had done 8 and some of the boys that I know had a record of 10. I was pretty excited when I did 12, and in my moment of victory, I crashed. Also this summer my friend and I got both of out boards and my dad pulled us. It was a blast! If you ever get the chance to do a double, do it because its a blast.

   I got a wakeboard this last summer and it has been a blast so far. I got up after a million tries and figuring out what I was doing wrong.  My sister, brother, and my dad also got up. After getting comfortable, I managed to do a 180. When attempting a 360, I caught a bad edge and face planted pretty hard. Ouch! It hurt pretty bad. At the end of the summer I accomplished my goal of pulling off a 360. I can't wait till next summer.
