I bet they skipped like a rock for a moment...

Yup. If you have ever gone down, cracking the whip on a ski rope, you
know the feeling. You bounce once or twice, then you break the surface
tension and go down, just like a rock.

Yup, that's a funky feeling, at least until you pop back up. Even at my slightly advanced middle-age, I still love getting on a smoothy patch of water and being thrown out at high speed on a tube. You zip across the smooth water and if you're careful, it's a rush. One misstep and you are skipping across the water and then boom, you're underwater.

That caused me two cracked ribs on a lake in Washington. Then, while climbing into the boat, one
with a big V-8 and big chrome mufflers, I grabbed a muffler to keep from falling back into the
water. Not a happy skier!
