On the 4th, my sister, my friend, and I woke up around 6:45 and headed out on the lake to get a set before the water got choppy. My wife wanted to sleep in for another hour or so.
After my first fall, I realized I still had my wedding ring on. FYI...it is VERY difficult for me to get my ring off my finger. I thought in my head "take it off and hand it to them as they drive by you in the boat. No, dont do that, you might drop it. It wont come off, just remember when you get done riding to take it off". Well, on a 540 attempt, the handle popped out of my hand. I didnt notice until I got back in the boat that it was gone. It had some diamonds in it too.
On the bright side. Right after I rode, my sister attemmpted a backroll and landed but popped the handle. Tried it again and stuck it for the first time!!!!!! She tried it a few times last summer and got a concussion. She had been trying a couple this summer and finally landed it.
So, i got back to the house and asked my wife.....you want the good news or the bad?
She took it pretty well. Kind of upset for me, but wasnt mad.
