Rest In Peace, EP

Wes said goodbye to an old friend on Saturday.  His beloved 1982 EP is no longer, due to the ravages of old age.  While Wes was out skiing, he noticed a tapping sound, and then saw the tip of the ski delaminating.  He thought he could make a few more turns, especially since the water was so glassy and smooth, but it was not to be.  The ski catastrophically failed on a hard cut across the wake, leading to a serious header by Wes.  After the crash, he saw the tip of the EP floating in the water like a shark fin.  The ski was in 2 pieces, sliced in half lengthwise.  Weird!  I never imagined a ski could come apart like that.  It almost looks like a pair in some of these pics!  Good thing Wes has been training a new Connelly Attack the past couple of years to take the EP's place.  He will miss this old friend though!
