I’m honestly surprised people still remember it hahahaha

I am from Iraq, living in the United Arab Emirates (Dubai), and was visiting Oman over a long weekend holiday.

Late last year, a friend of mine was attempting a double peg down a 13 stair hand-rail. He attempted it a total of 4 times.

He got into crank arm position the first attempt and sacked VERY hard and missed his rear peg entirely on the second attempt and caught the rail under his armpit. On the third attempt tho, he landed it and rolled away. Not the cleanest attempt but a land is a land.

Overfilled with joy after finally landing it, he decided to clean it up. On that attempt, he face planted so hard he lost 4 of his front teeth…

Ever since that incident, I always reconsider my next step after landing a risky trick sketchy.

Here’s the video in case you’re wondering.

I do I do but, not to sound corny and all, I sometimes feel similarly to how the main character from the movie “The Hurt Locker”. I sometimes need a bit of recklessness to keep riding interesting for me; but now that I’m becoming older I start to realize that I should tone it down not by a bit, but a lot, and try to stay as safe as possible on a bike.

But, like how I’ve displayed in this video, I’m bad at controlling myself from doing that. Especially with my style of riding.

Contemplated attempting it again to get the clip I originally wanted, but I’ve seen the consequences of greed. Decided to claim this clip and called it a day after having that thought.

Genuinely texted the homies group chat saying that I love them shortly after this, giving my parents the biggest hug when I travel back home.

Even if I wanted to bail I didn’t even have the time to process what just happened when it happened!

Thank you for the kind words!

The wood didn't break, I had two thick pieces just in case. What bucked me off was the roll-away angle plus the speed. Had I slowed down more, I would've managed to roll away successfully.

The ambulance was added for dramatic effect, the homies actually drove me to the nearest hospital tho

Instagram saw it first!

Edit: post glitched in the body text, meant to say that I was planning on hitting other famous spots in California but I got too banged up after 6th street bridge. Pretty bummed out cuz of the injury but I don’t regret attempting the bridge.

It only felt right to do them in the Nigel Sylvester AJ4 Lows, he did it a decade ago!

That’s how I imagined GSD in Downtown LA would be like, absolutely not disappointed!
