The Judge

59 inches of solid fiber glass
A blade warped to ride waves
Sat upon by twin boots
Of which eager feet cram into
Hit it!
The engine roars like an eagle’s cry
Coils of rope unwind like a scared snake

The rider is jerked up
351 horse power mercruiser direct drive
Vrroommm!

Faster than a chocoholic can eat a candy bar
The skier is boosted
Onto the crests of the waves


As the boat churns through the lake
The water skier jumps waves like
A kangaroo playing hopscotch
Rocking back and forth, like
A tree in a raging storm

Waterskiing gives you the power of freedom
