Today the instructor said to me; "Let's play Follow the Leader" and led me through some high speed Lock-to-Lock minimum radius Figure-8's, then ultra slow speed minimum radius Figure-8's on the side of a steep incline. No problem staying with him. Then he went over the 12" wide bridge 35 feet long... sloooooly.... No problem.
But when he hit the slalom course, he just walked away.
Nothing I could do to keep up with him. Nothing. I've been working on this all damn week. I've shaved two full seconds off my time. 37 feet long with 6 pylons. I can do it now in 6.5 seconds. But when he hit the finish line I was barely at the third pylon.
I CAN'T KEEP UP WITH HIM!!!! It was like I was stuck in glue! We went around the course 5 times and the same thing happened every single time! DAMN IT! He just sails through it and I wallow!
