History of Knaboobing

So most of you have heard of the sport knaboobing, made up by Ashley and me, (if not see Ashley's blog) but no one knows the history of knaboobing...

Putting an air mattress in the water was actually my dad's idea. Morgan, Galen, Ashley and I were sitting at my dinning room table eating breakfast after a sleepover. My dad came up with the idea that the four of us should go kayaking and pull an air mattress behind the kayak. So we hooked up a ski rope to the back of a kayak and threw the knaboob in the water. There were two kayaks. one dragging the knaboob behind it and one all alone. We traveled across the lake and right in the middle of the lake we decided to trade spots. So we created a flotilla. The two on the air mattress climbed into each boat, while the other two climbed onto the air mattress. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAKE! Picture what the cars driving by were thinking! Haha! It was the beginning of spring, bright and early in the morning. They probably thought we were nuts! It was freezing out!

Luckily none of us fell in the water, although after the last switch some water did pour onto the knaboob because it had deflated. The air mattress has a little bitty teeny weeny hole.

Now i know we sound crazy but honestly i thought it was super de duper fun! It was the most fun I'd had in a long time. It was exciting and daring and stupid all together. and when we were done, we came up with the idea to pull an air mattress behind a boat...

hence the invention of
KNABOOBING!!!
