As many of you already know, last week my rookie, coach and partner in crime took a bad fall working on new tricks. This resulted in her breaking her tibia and having to have emergency surgery. After a few nights in the hospital she’s now finally home and starting to come down from the pain meds.
Seeing Nicola take that fall and being in so much pain has been horrible. Sometimes I feel like I need more taken care of than her. It makes you remember how harsh wakeboarding can be on your body and that anytime something can go wrong. I’ve been trying hard to forget about those thoughts and hopefully a change of scenery will help getting my motivation back and I’m stoked to be leaving to ride with my friend Adam Fields in North Carolina today.
