Six signs you have a good storke

1 the water skier you are pulling is up and smiling
2 Dolphins are surfing in your wake
3 Sea lions are out of breath trying to keep up with you.
4 power boaters give you the right of way
5 your GPS crashes trying calculate your speed
6 you leave Freya in your wake

Six signs you have a bad stroke

1 you race an island and lose
2 barnacles are growing on your blade
3 sea lions ignore you
4 you offer a beginer advice and they laugh
5 the big box store you bought your boat from offers you a full refund
6 you are upside down
