Supporting Member Than_Bogan Posted June 27, 2011 Supporting Member Share Posted June 27, 2011 Took a dragonfly in the eye? (This actually happened to me once at a tournament, but it was on an earlier pass and I ran it anyhow. Nice and bloodshot for a while, though.) Hit a turtle? (I *think* this happened to me once, too, at the same site as the dragonfly, but it's hard to be sure.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Not_The_Pug Posted June 27, 2011 Baller Share Posted June 27, 2011 Guy at our tournament on Friday claimed to hit a fish going through the gates. All on the dock were joking around about what we could come up with. Then the boat comes back to the dock with the sliced fish. Everyone then wanted to carry that fish around with them to toss out when we fell. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member Than_Bogan Posted June 27, 2011 Supporting Member Share Posted June 27, 2011 That "fish story" is bizarre. Must be a big, slow, surface fish? A fat koi or something? Or maybe something very near to dead or recently deceased? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Not_The_Pug Posted June 27, 2011 Baller Share Posted June 27, 2011 It was a small fish, about 8" long. I guess it was already dead and floated up. The tower judge actually saw it just as the skier turned in for the gates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Not_The_Pug Posted June 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted June 28, 2011 I think the lake owner just gives you an invoice for killing one of his fish. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Razorskier1 Posted June 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted June 28, 2011 OK, this wasn't a tournament excuse, but this morning I was at 35 off heading to the 5 ball. Looked up and there were four geese, two just inside the ball, two at the ball. Now, I don't like Canada Geese (crap factories) any better than the next guy, so I had to choose. (A) try to take out two with the ski and two with the rope, (B) just try to get the ones with the rope and then let go before you crash or © go really wide and lift up the handle, sparing the wildlife. I chose C, which meant that I did not complete the pass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Roger Posted June 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted June 28, 2011 One of my ski partners swears she hit a catfish when the Southern Regionals were in Milledgeville, GA back in the 90s. It was a catfish farm where the ladies skied as I recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller rawly Posted June 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted June 28, 2011 You ski like crap because your sight(B.O.S.) is getting so huge that you can no longer concentrate on your skiing.

Baller AggieSkier Posted June 29, 2011 Baller Share Posted June 29, 2011 The Dock Starter got sun tan lotion on my handle. Or do like the North Koreans and blame lightning: BBC – North Korea’s coach blamed his side’s 2-0 loss to the United States on his players getting struck by lightning in the build up to the Women’s World Cup. Kwang Min Kim claimed that some of them were hospitalised with electrocution after a training match on 8 June. “When we stayed in Pyongyang during training our players were hit by lightning, and more than five of them were hospitalised,” said coach Kim, without naming the affected players specifically. “Some stayed in hospital and then came to Germany later than the rest of us. The goalkeeper and the four defenders were most affected, and some midfielders as well. The physicians said the players were not capable of participating in the tournament. “But World Cup football is the most important and significant event for a footballer, so they don’t want to think about anything but football.”The fact that they played could be called abnormal, the result of very strong will.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Horton Posted June 30, 2011 Author Administrators Share Posted June 30, 2011 Way back in the day - West Coast legend Mike Mello claimed he hit a fish at regoinals. He even produced the fish. I always assumed it was in his pocket from the start.
