Last time you told a little white lie?
I’m married, so everyday “I wont be late” probably tops the list
Last time you spent your money frivolously?
I’m not going to answer that, I get far too much stick from the wife already. “JC, you should rephrase that, when was the last time he didn’t spend ‘OUR’ money frivolously ??” Sally.
Last time you read a windsurf magazine cover to cover?
Are you really asking a dyslexic that, though if looking at the pictures counts, then every time it drops on the doormat!
Last time you did a jump that made you scared?
Sometimes it’s the fear of not doing it that gets you past the real fear. I was in Maui and having just put my glass back on the bar I stated “ I’m going to do a double at Hookipa on Tuesday”. Like the average guy who does a forward, I liked the idea of being able to say “yep, did a double”, even if my singles aren’t that proficient, so why the bold statement ? Seeing the best of the world windsurfing, stood on the hill on Tuesday morning was just what that statement was about. “Whitey, are you really going to try a double” Francisco asked while the rest waited for me to back down. To say I was shitting myself would be an understatement but I’d amassed just about everyone that would give me shit forever. First run out I couldn’t get planing, the second run seemed to be going the same way until I caught a gust just ahead of a logo high wave. Can’t say there was a lot of technique going on but sheeting in as hard as I could took me round enough times to land on my back to claim a double as I water started away.
