yeah, that's her right now with this goddamn trick.

she tries again out of stubbornness because she'll get this trick if it's the last thing she does...

leading her mantine back into the ocean, she begins to start the first stage of the trick.

this was it. this is the culmination of everything he worked for. everything hinged on this one trick for priam to be able to do the rest of it under the time limit.

he really wanted to do so just for the sake of not being labeled as a bad surfer.

He found his answer before long, and with it, the briny taste of success as the spray of saltwater surrounded he and his companion.[break][break]

That time around, he'd managed to stifle a resounding cry of victory, though as the Mantine beneath him touched the waters once more and began to teeter to and fro amidst its rebalancing act, he held onto the saddle with a hand while the remaining closed in on itself, balling into fist as he shook it.[break][break]

Down he went, and so did Izumi Yamamura right before him. It almost seemed hopeless at this point. The two parents had thrown this contest long ago.

But it would be worth it if they could hit a damn Magikarp Splash!

no worries. she pulled herself back onto the mantine.

he went for it, set on trying to get the hardest trick at least one more time before he went home.

she opted for the better chances, this time.

could she even make it to 4000? this had been pitiful. she wanted another drink at this point, but she wasn't about to walk away so close to the end. she had to finish it out and try her best.

hoping to have some kind of decent luck this time, she went towards the wave. "starmie 720!" she called.
