The redhead gasps as they enter their first turn. For a moment, the sun is highlighted by a spray of rainbow. “You’re doing great!” Then, it goes wrong. Her eyes widen as a shadow catches her eyes. The doctor turns as her feet leave the stirrups.
[break][break]


Another Mantine leaps from the surf in front of them. There’s a dad and a kid on it. The toddler’s big, wide eyes stare at her. “Arceus!” She jerks We need to—” Her hands let go as her Mantine twists out of the wave.
[break][break]


Her body smacks into the water and vanishes. For a moment, Aubre lets herself sink. The dark siren of her mind whispers that there’s no reason to fight the current. Maybe it’d be better if she just took a deep breath. But that voice is squashed. A scarred hand reaches out as a high-visibility rope whips past her face.
[break][break]


With an apologetic noise, the Mantine bumps her back out of the water. “It’s not your fault. It’s busy out here.” It was kind of nice. In this wartorn place, it was nice to see people smiling. “I’d rather take the fall anyway.” A spill could start a lifelong phobia for a little girl like that. With a smile, Aubre pulls herself onto the scarred manta ray’s back.

[break][break]
“Do you want to try again?” With a nod, the Mantine launches toward the next wave.

The first one had been damn near a wipe out. He hoped this time would be different. The Mantine he gets on is shy, and he felt a bubble of nervousness rise but tried not to think of it. "Let's go. We got this Guppy."

No, that probably wasn't it-he thinks as his mantine is stabilized by a suspicious pink energy interference.

It was likely due to the missed soccer practices, missed family dinners, that time they came across their first roadkill and he tried to turn it into a science lesson...

Another failure and he knows he's going to end up sore or with a head injury by the time they're done with all these failed attempts. Yet the moment they're in the air and both Salem and Aero cheer without a care in the world Razz keeps on going. There too much hecticness going on to now allow his pokemon some fun on the side.

And perhaps taking that break was the key to victory. Because as soon as El felt ready to go back into the fray of things, they were able to pull off another trick - laughing with delight as they twist through the air with their Mantine..!

And in focusing back on the now, Makoto is able to pull off another trick - they feel as though they're getting the hang of it, really. Of course, they're no less likely to take twenty more spills in the name of practice, but progress is progress...

Whatever Ettie's spinning had meant to accomplish, it certainly helped the next trick - the wildchild and Mantine both hyped up from the shenanigans! As it twists through the air, Ettie lets out another whoop of delight.

"I'M GONNA DO IT THIS TIME! FOR REAL!" Howard screeched as he sprinted towards the ocean. He threw his surfboard into the water and immediately began swimming out. "IT'S TIME TO MAGIKARP!"

This time he'll make it.

He's normal.

Keep gambling.

Dorian wiped out again. Despite wanting to just rage out at that moment, the Mad Dog kept his cool. For his son.

Again, the Rocket attempted the Magikarp Splash.

To the joy of his audience, Andrew wiped out again. On a restream, a new emote of Andrew wiping out on a Mantine with trollface cropped up.

Oblivious to this, Andrew attempted the Primarina Twist again.

Another great success! Now that Andrea had gotten the hang of pulling off these tricks, she felt like a surfing master.

"Woohoo! I'm the Kahuna of Hoenn!" The young woman boisterously declared, challenging the gods of probability and luck with her hubris. Rule No. 1 of gambling was to quit while you were ahead, but she could not part with her rental Mantine just yet.

She just needed to get this one last trick right.
