CamSur through my Candy Colored Holga

Summer is just around the corner. A lot of people seems to be planning a beach trip for the holy week. Not me! I want to go Wakeboarding in CamSur. I’d rather spend the whole day wakeboarding than going to a crowded beach. I would spend the whole summer in Bicol away from the hustle and bustle of the city if I can. I wish I could!

Flash back Holy Week 2007
I had a terrible accident while wakeboarding in CWC. I tore my left knee ACL on the landing after a jump on a kicker. It was depressing, it was killing me to accept that I will have this injury for the rest of my life. It was heart-breaking to know that I wasn’t going to be as athletic as I was before. It was hard to accept the fact that recovering from a knee injury takes a very long and painful time. It was shocking to see my left leg muscles athropied from non-muscle use due to injury and pain. I had the worst experience of walking on crutches. For 5 months this went on. It was a terrible time for me

Fast Forward to November 2008 >>>
After almost two years away from CamSur and anything wakeboarding, I finally got a chance to get back on the bindings and cables with a permanent ACL injury and see what’s the fuss about wakeboarding again. IT WAS WORTH IT! after all the fears I had with this place (the reason why I got my ACL injury in the first place) I finally broke free from the usual “can I still wakeboard with my injury???” phobia. IT FELT GOOD!  I’m also very happy I didn’t get any other injuries during my visit, It felt good to be back, it was like finding something I’ve been looking for all these years. I did not try any kickers or sliders yet, but I must say, I will, the next time I get a chance to… haha :))

I CAN’T WAIT TO BE OUT THERE AGAIN SOON!!!
