Tubing. A very calm sport. A sign gulag tub bumping over the waves that lye ahead. That is how some people might think of it. But not me.
"Megan!" My sister Samantha yelled over the screaming of the pontune boat.
" I dare you to jump off!"
There was a sudden lurch in my gut. I wanted to jump of the tube. I really really did, but there were the done sides of tubing and hitting a rock at the bottom of the lake was one of them. But, a dare was a dare. I ready myself to leap off the side of the tube as we came around the bend. With one sudden lurch I was suddenly air born.

I flew out across the lake for 1 second then was suddenly encased in a cocoon of water. As my body hit the surface of the water I felt a stinging pain hit my side. I popped up out of the freezing cold black lake and looked around to see if the boat was coming around to get me. As I thought it was.
When the tube reached me I swam along side it till I finally built up enough energy to climb on. I hooked my arms onto the back of the tube and climbed back on gasping for air.
"So, did you think I would do it" I said with a grin spreading across my face.
