Gymkhana Five – San Francisco

July 9, 2012 in Automotive, Lifestyles

Last week we gave you a quick preview of the latest from Ken Block. Well today DC x Ken Block officially released Gymkhana Five: Ultimate Urban Playground San Francisco. Ken Block definitely does it again with another awesome video! This is definitely one you don’t want to miss!

An homage to the great chase scene in the movie Bullit and others like it, DC Shoes‘ Ken Block unveiled the fifth installment of his popular Gymkhana viral video series with the City of San Francisco as the backdrop. Uneven terrains, twisted roads, and windy streets, the city by the bay is as challenging as they come for drivers. But for Block and his Hybrid Function Hoon Vehicle (H.F.H.V.), a highly modified Ford Fiesta, it was a playground like no other. In no time, Block ripped through The Bay Bridge, San Francisco’s Financial District, Russian Hill, Potrero Hill, Twin Peaks, even two of the city’s famous cable cars. Along the way, friend Travis Pastrana and Thrasher Magazine‘s Jake Phelps joined the festivities to show their support. After all, Ken Block should not have all the fun. In addition to the outrageous skill sets, Block also showcased the new DC Teamworks Collection. Designed in conjunction with him and others on his Gymkhana team, the collection features DC Ken Block Pro Spec 3.0 Shoe, the DC Ken Block Gatsby 2 Shoe, the Block Spartan Teamworks High Shoe, the KB Cracked Tee, KB Cracked Up Zip Hoodie, the KB Cracked Hat, all appointed with none other than Block’s Hybrid Function Hoon Vehicle liveries. See the excitement in the video after the jump. via – freshnessmag
