As previously mentioned, we went to a water park while we were camping with my brother Keith and his wife Natalie. We had fun jumping off the diving board and attempting flips. Here are the video's, as promised.
Natalie was the last to attempt a flip. Keith had to bribe her with a new pair of shoes to get her to do it. But I am so proud of her for doing the flip that I decided her video should be first. Way to go Natalie!
I love chris's flips because his body always turns kind of sideways in the air, like he's looking for his landing. It's fun to watch.
I was supposed to be the first to go, but I wussed out and ended up going second. I was still really nervous, and as you will see, I am the only one who doesn't end up with a clean landing. I smack my thighs on the water. It hurt like crazy. I think you even hear me yell.
This is Keith's first attempt. He did it over and over (with a few back flops added in) until eventually he got really good. (Not that this first attempt wasn't good.)

Gosh, I haven't done a flip since like 6th grade! I think I would be WAY to scared! I'm impressed with your skills! :o)
I think it would take more than a new pair of shoes to get me to do that..maybe two!
How fun is that!? I loved watching everyone do their flips. (Water always gets up my nose when I do that.) I was actually nervous for Natalie 'cause you could tell she was really scared. Way to go you guys! I liked Chris's sideways flip.
Thanks for posting our flips. That was seriously a personal feat for me. I don't think you mentioned how brave you were to go first after losing paper, rock, scissors to Chris. There's no way I would have just gone up and done it. Thanks again for going camping, we had a blast!
