Chad in His Glory


Chad does not care for the water one little bit. He has had swimming lessons, and is relatively comfortable in the water, but he just does not like it. Forget tubing, and even the thought of trying to water ski gives him the willies. But getting on the Seadoo with Uncle Andrew .... now that is another story!


His fear and healthy respect for the water is put behind him and his total trust in his beloved Uncle allows him to forget that he is on the water, and he just enjoys the ride.


Getting to this daredevil stage of Seadoo tricks did not come immediately, but through many gentler rides, each building on the success and thrill of the last ride


Soon, nothing is too wild and wet. Bring it on!


Near spills, severe tilts, submarining, getting soaked, are all just part of the thrill.


There was nothing that would deter him from asking for another ride an hour later.


Coming into shore, the tense and nervous look on his face totally disappears and what is left is a satisfied, happy ten year old boy who has just run out of adrenalin.
