NIQUE VETROMILE: While
some people sit in front of the T.V. and eat, I get up every
morning, get in my bathing suit, pack a cooler and head out
(with my family) to the beach. Not only do I windsurf in the
summer in one of the best spots in the world, but I spend my
falls, winters and springs in Aspen Colorado skiing,
horseback riding, biking and of coarse going to school.
For me windsurfing is a privilege, but for some it is a
lifestyle. When I first started windsurfing I would go as
far as the buoys that mark the end of the swim zone. As I
learned to go farther out I became more and more afraid of
the things in the water. Then one day I realized that
nothing will hurt me if I don’t bother it. Not being afraid
of the water has let me be open to new ideas and new ways of
trying things. This year I learned how to jibe two different
ways, tack and do a front hand drop and a back hand drop. I
sailed with lots of pros who gave me new information and
expanded my windsurfing knowledge. I started sailing tandem
with my dad when I was 3 years old. My first solo was a
Pluto sail and a big floaty board (dagger board and all).
Now I sail short boards, eight footers. I even take my
parents slalom boards out when they let me. This summer I
learned to go fast, race in slalom buoys and even sailed in
on a five foot wave. I love windsurfing and will sail till I
drop. |
