I hear the motor roaring when we jump over the huge waves. I feel the boat hitting them and landing hard on the bumpy water. I am scared the boat is going to flip over and sink. But at the same time it is kind of fun. Jake
I wait in line with my brother nervously. We are getting closer and closer to the front. Then it's finally our turn, as we are getting on the set, the set belts slowly go down on me. I feel so terrified, nervous but confident. Now the countdown is starting, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. It went quiet… Amelie
I hear my mum and dad squealing in excitement. I see the sea below me and huge waves crashing. I feel happy but terrified. I’m afraid the seat can’t hold me in. Olivia
Woodhill Mountain Biking
I bike really fast down a steep hill. My speed carries me up the next rise, and I jump right over the top into the air. I land smoothly at the bottom on the gravel without skidding. I feel like I am biking to freedom. Tana
I spy my prey, a shining grey dead still in daylight. As I put my face underwater I feel the water cover my body.Taste of water happens as I go down like an eel with the sound of me breathing out of my nose.The ball touches my hand, I have made it back up on top of the rock, “Next one” Jacob
100m butterfly
As I stand on the wet diving block with my heart pumping I am about to start my first 100m fly. The loud whistle blows and I dive in to start the first lap. Suddenly I am on my last lap. The race seems to go very fast. But as i'm on my last lap I start to run out of breath. I swallow water and it gets stuck in my throat. Yuck! I can’t wait till I get to the wall, so I push as hard as I can. As I start going faster and faster, I pass Cameron Dufty. I come 1st in my age group. I feel exhausted but happy. Joella
