Engage in sport: risk a wet trip? (5-3)
I believe the answer is:
water-ski
'engage in sport' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'risk a wet trip?' is the wordplay.
'trip?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'trips' mean this).
'risk'+'a'+'wet'='riskawet'
'riskawet' is an anagram of 'WATER-SKI'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for water-ski that I've seen before include "Tweak sir (anag)" , "Travel behind boat on boards" , "Item used in aquatic sport" , "Engage in aquatic sport" , "Aquatic sport accessory" .)
