Wow, this would be pretty intense in the cockpit. I'm impressed....

Pretty sweet, eh?

You must have been busy last week when this hit the net. I love watching it though.

Ken Block was a decent skateboarder, built some crazy ramps, and I think he had something to do with DC Shoes...

Watch the long jump video too.

 

[UNSTUCK]

Some of the best internet video I've seen. He's done more on the slopes with his car then I have with my snowboard.

 

[Hickey]

I need a tire sponsor.

 

[Exalted 4x4]

He is the co founder of DC so yeah he had a little to do with DC.

 

[Paul R]

That is pretty sweet!

 

[Exalted 4x4]

He has his own mini resort in the mtns around park city called the Mtn. lab. Huge snowboard park with rails etc and a cable lift. Pretty sick.

 

[Brett]

I can see why he has 4 set's of BFG's

 

[jeep-N-montero]

He actually used to own some property somewhere close to Kamas/Park City and had a decent size rally practice track for a short while with close to 20 miles of dirt roads, he still owns a house up there and a buddy runs into him from time to time. But I suppose working in track/action sports photography provides him a lot of those opportunities. The airport looks like Wendover at first glance, but it's actually out in Cali and they host a lot of drifting/track events there. Ken is one of the best drivers in the world for being so young, I just hope he doesn't end up like drivers Lovell and Freeman back in Jul 03, they died on Jul 12th in the Oregon Trail pro rally shortly after I met them at the Pikes Peak Hill Climb about 2 weeks before.

[notajeep]

That is pretty sweet. He goes through tires the way my wife goes through shoes.

 

[ChestonScout]

I wish I had a 500+ HP Subaru.........of course I would throw some 44" Pitbulls under it

 

[Coreshot]

The video with Pastrana doing the backflip over Ken was shot in SLC. Looking at the video, I wonder if it was shot at Godfrey Trucking, as they used to have some MX jumps/tracks out there. Don't know if they still do. Very cool stuff, I love watching them.

Mad Skills

 

[projektdotnet]

One of the best drivers right now, 3rd in nationals 2007 or 2008 IIRC but can't remember for the death of me where I read it.

I noticed our beautiful mountains there. Sweet.

I've been looking at STIs lately. I showed that video to my wife so she could understand why I need one. She's still cool with me getting one. My wife is the best!

 

[Tacoma]

My wife LOVES Subarus. I told her I would consider an STI. Fits her requirements (4 doors, 4wd, trunk) and mine (if I have to drive a car, it better be fun).

Just need money.

That jump was filmed down at ogio in bluffdale. they have a bunch of jumps below the warehouse. The godfrey guy is the guy in charge of filming pastranas videos. Remember in the news a month or so ago there was a guy in draper/bluffdale that got turned in for riding dirtbikes in his backyard and on his house. (on ksl) That was godfrey. I would assume he has something to do with godfrey trucking too.
