Day 1 pool session at Outdoor Retailer

August 13, 2004

The Jackson Family got in the car in New York at 4:30 in the morning, and were barely on the plane at 7am. We arrived at 10 am in Salt Lake City and went to our hotel, picked up the Fun 1-1/2 and Emily hit the water at 11:30 sharp with the Lotus women’s gear session. The girls just paddled around, played around, and showed off the new gear. Emily made the maiden voyage in the Fun 1- ½ . I asked her how she liked it and she said, “I like it, I did a whole bunch of moves I could never do before, I can flatwater loop now!” Enough said for her 15 minutes in the boat.
