Embarrasing

There was one time in the first 2 years of me skateboarding so I was about 12 at the time. I just entered my first skate competition. That was the time my whole family was there and the girl I liked at the time and all my friends. I remember that I was 17 on the list and my name starting coming up so fast. When you enter a skate competition you make sure you do the tricks you can every time first time and I had my run down, so I thought I did. the names were going by so fast then they called my name so I go to my spot on top of the pyramid. I got on top of the pyramid and the horn blew so I got on my skateboard and rolled down the ramp. My first trick I wanted to do was a back lip down the five foot period handrail. I landed that so I run back up to the ramp to do a tre flip over the 5 foot flat top on the pyramid. I went off down the ramp put my feet in the right position and then went up the ramp flicked it and everyone knew I could do it but I didn't land it over and over. Two minutes pass and I couldn't land that trick and I ended up with last place in the competition. I felt embarrassed for a little but at the same time I didn't care because I wasn't worried there are always more competitions later on in life.
