Ken Block’s Gymkhana Two

Ken Block’s Gymkhana Two


Gymkhana One took the internet by storm. The video acquired over 20 million views on youtube, and suddenly everyone knew the name of DC Shoes co-founder Ken Block. He’s a successful rally racer and extreme sports competitor, appearing in skateboarding, motocross, and snowboarding events. He’s also a damn fine driver, as his Rally America victories demonstrate. With his Crawford Performance tuned Subaru’s, Block is a champion at laying down thick strips of rubber, and can gracefully slide a car like few others in the world.

The motorsport of Gymkhana is practiced in the United States and Japan, and involves a driver deftly navigating his or her car through a highly complicated obstacle course. It incorporates driving maneuvers such as spins and figure 8′s, and requires extensive drifting. Block is a master.

Pure magic, the man is the automotive equivalent of Ghandi. Or something. We’ve embedded the HD video, so it may take a moment or two to load — we promise it’s worth it.
