Ultmate Wave
Anticipation of the next great ride
  My mind filled with glorious thoughts
  Pulling on my wetsuit to protect me from the beast
  Stepping out into the granules as they wrap around my feet
  The icy cold water chills my bones with incredible feeling
  As I paddle out to the peak, my thoughts go blank
  I can't think of anything better than connecting with a killer turn
  As I paddle for a wave, my bones go numb
  My mind is only focused on one thing
  Catching the monstrous wave
  I stand up immediately only hoping to complete my one objective
  Pull an improbable turn
  As I pump with my legs, the salty spray hits me with an amazing feeling
  There is no better place than where I am right now
  As I ride down the face, the wave walls up
  The section is perfect for a gnarly top turn
  I ride the wave up
  I push every ounce of energy I have into this one turn.
  Bang!
  I hear people cheering in the background
  I have achieved the improbable
  Feeling starting to overcome numb
  My legs are now stronger than ever
  This unimaginable thing I have done
  Makes me feel alive inside
