All the processing for hours finally pays off when you finally land the trick for the first time. Then

People may think that it is dangerous or life threatening to ride a dirt bike, but really once you try and get the hang of it, it’s pretty fun. You won’t want to stop.

While I was gaining speed, I had a moment of realization that I did not know how to stop; so seconds before I made it to Gage I threw myself to the ground, to stop myself from colliding with Gage. He laughs as I sit up and brush the snow off myself. “So are you ready to go to the top?”

    Sometimes the hardest thing for beginning surfers is the initial embarrassment of not being good at the sport. Keep in mind that all good surfers had to start on the bottom rung, just like you. I do not know a single soul who paddled into the water for the first time and did not feel defeated and just plain bad about his or her ability.
