Ski lift

the bottom of the hill then the scary thing happened. I had to get on the ski lift for the first time ever in my life. I was standing in line all alone. As the instructor comes down the hill I ask him how to even get on and off of this thing. He said I could go with him so I did. As it was our turn he said “keep your board straight and up”. I asked why and he explained that if the board gets caught I will fall off the lift. Then it was time to get off of this horrible…

The thing about living in Wisconsin is that even the Weatherman can not predict the weather. It could be sunny and 75 one day and rainy and 50 the next. Winters can be extremely brutal because of this, which could be a good or bad thing. In my case in the winter of 2015, it was a bad thing. Every year my school took two days off in mid-February and had these things called Mini Courses. Mini Courses were a bunch of fun activities like candle making and food tasting that you could sign up for.…

Concord Carlisle. Fast forward about year and Lacrosse season in knocking on the door again. I had big expectations for myself this year, be a varsity starter. I had worked hard with my teammates in the offseason, making sure never to miss a single lift or pick-up practice. I was feeling so confident going into tryouts. I hustled in every drill, asked questioned when I needed too, and played as hard as I could. Sure I missed a few catches and made some bad throws, but I was on Varsity last year…

time there, although my Grandma sold our cabin a couple years ago. I still remember the crisp waves lapping up against the dock. The sound was so lulling and peaceful that you didn’t have trouble getting to sleep. We had two boats and a jet ski. The jet ski was purple before we had to get a brand new one. The new one was yellow, but my grandma sold it when she sold the cabin. The first boat was our fishing boat. It had a radar screen to tell you where the fish were, and all of the boys enjoyed…

sea gulls lurking around. The family on your right decided to leave, irritated by the sea gulls presence. Gazing into the ocean you notice a few sea gulls diving into the fresh salt water searching for an unlucky fish dinner. At the same time a Jet Ski races by the fishing bird only to scare the fish away leaving the sea gull without dinner. You decide to lie down in the warm sand, taking in the view of the multiple changing colors. First pale orange, then light pink to indefinitely pitch dark,…

addition we would go to a lake to tube, ski, and Kneeboard. When I am trying to do a new trick that I just thought about I know that he's there just in case it goes wrong. Sometimes we will even go Kneeboarding together. “Let’s see if I pull up on my rope if we can switch sides!” I suggest. “Do you want me or you go up?” He states. “I will if you don’t mind.” I say. As I pull on the rope so that i'm not as far away from the boat. He then lifts his rope so that it's easy to go under…

in two days and to start packing. We landed and as I stepped outside I felt a cold breeze blowing against me and a musty dry smell from all the snow and knew I would rather be here than anywhere else in the country. I was preparing to get on the ski lift. I finished the sour candy and still had the taste in my mouth and then tightened my knee brace. I made it to the top and strapped my feet on my new shiny black, green and blue snow board. I got going really fast. Faster than I have ever gone.…

A hopeful snowboarder must hide that fact that he’s homeless from his new girlfriend, as he prepares for a championship competition. STORY COMMENTS ZERO GRAVITY is a sports-romance script. The script has a strong hook in the idea of snowboarding. While there are certainly elements to like about the script, it would also benefit from further development. First, the opening scene nicely sets the tone and introduces the audience to the world of snowboarding and the concept of “zero gravity.”…
