Enjoy!
This story came about because of the time a woman decided to join our synchro team despite suffering from panic attacks in the water. Like, lady. This ain't the sport for you.
Nonetheles, she soldiered half-heartedly on. Missing land drills. Never learning the choreography. Barely showing up to practice and yet demanding a spot in the pattern for Nationals.
We reached a breaking point when she accused me of kicking her in the head during a swim through.
First, this is a contact sport. Second, my legs aren't that long and there were three people between us at the time.
Thank God there was video because she threatened to sue the team and each of us personally. It got to the point that we refused to get in the water with her which was "totally unfair."
It occurred to me that if this woman ended up dead, we'd all be the prime suspects. That became the premise of SYNCHRONUT JUSTICE.
