Kaan almost died, and I love to tell the story:
Ok, so we're at Summit Point Main, and kaan is doing laps around the tech shed because he's bored. Trying to drag a little board on the way around, I guess.
So, I grab one of the little metal ramps that we use to get cars onto the scales. Kaan sees me with it, we make eye contact, and I put the ramp right in the middle of the tech shed and point. Kaan makes one more loop, goes up high (to where cobetto normally does all hands) and PUNCHES IT. You can hear the little 2 stroke "wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!" I mean he's giving it all it's got going downhill with a tailwind. Kaan hits the ramp, gets no shit like 2 feet of air...and then Kaan goes one way and the go-ped goes another. Kaan bellyflops onto the blacktop, and the goped loses its airbox cover and slides into the road, still running.
I'm laughing as I stumble over to Kaan to see if anything is broken, but it turns out the brain damage was a pre-existing condition.
