Featherweight.

If you grab the board on the way down, you get get a negative angle of entry. A geek like you should know that…

This was me as a kid, I weighed nothing. I made up for it as an adult…

hey, Jason’s a human skip rocker. :D

Opposite of what’s likely. At that age (and similar build) I sank like a rock. I could lie on the bottom of a pool and wave to those above.

Skip bombs, aka dam busters, worked in WWII.

Who goes in the water with their glasses on?

Skipping should be an Olympic sport, along with splashing

Too much sunscreen on Jason and in the pool.

This joke was used once or twice already in the strip’s run, as I recall. Jason called himself the human skipping stone.

Musta been an ice pool…

More like “Ping-pong ball!”

Now Jason knows what a skipping stone feels like.

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!

He’s not going to make much of a splash, in life, so, he should just skip it.
