Anyone else a little bored with seeing Ken block do donuts around different stuff. I mean, yeah, he is really good at doing donuts around stuff but still. 7 videos of it?
No way man. I agree with curtaincarot. The same could be said for watching MTB videos. Rarely do you see new tricks or terrain, but we keep watching because the skill level is off the charts and it's entertaining as hell. I love watching Block's videos because although it may seem that he's just doing donuts, the skill level to control the car in those tight spaces is mind-blowing. I feel the same way when I watch Freeride videos of guys riding on the limit and hitting huge features. It gets the blood pumping man!
Danny Mac tells a story with his more recent videos, he is aware that just another video with him doing the same tricks wouldn't be intereseting. Plus he seems to bring new tricks to each video. The really good sports videos are about finding a new place to ride, coming back from some kind of adversity, doing something new or about a journey or relationship etc, the really fogettable videos are just a stream of tricks you have seen before. Ken Block just seems to do donuts around different stuff, no story, nothing new. Whether it is around a cop car or a segway or a barrel or a lowrider it is still just doing donuts around a thing. It is an amazing car and a beautifully shot video featuring some really amazing skill but I just don't really care.
Welcome to pinkbike in the winter. Get ready for more random videos, season recaps, opinion polls on bike fashion and reviews on useless junk like the enduroguard.
If cars aren't your thing thats cool. But I'm not sure how anyone on Pinkbike can sit here and complain about rehashed videos, or how he's doing the same thing just in a different location etc. I mean what exactly is most of the content on this site? Its videos of people riding bikes. Yes, the bikes change and the locations change, but ultimately most of these 'edits' are the same thing. There is nothing groundbreaking in 99% of them.
@sino428 "doing the same thing just in a different location etc." This is the most important point. The location. We ride beautiful places and leave them still beautiful.
That car, yes. Thats what I was fixated on, a nice departure from the usual turboed 4-banger. And the donut around the bombed-out Scoobie was a nice touch.
Come on, You have to accept the fact that some ppl love motor sports as much, if not more than, you like MTBing, so whats wrong with 7 drifting videos? MTBers make thousands of vids a yr
If you had even a clue of what it takes to hold those tight 4 wheel drifts you wouldn't make that comment. Go ahead, try it sometime.
Those "donuts" are to car driving what an infinite wheelie on changing terrain is to mountain biking. Sure. "Easy", but your ass can't do it and neither can your friends. All semi-pro and pro drivers (bikers)? Sure. "Easy".
SJones11- It's only annoying if the only car you've been around is a Prius. You're too young to drive and hybrid cars are kinda the norm for you so I understand the confusion.
Tough crowd. Every now and then it's nice to take a spin around the Block. Winter on PB is my favorite time of year. It's also the time of year whem I can ride without dread of getting heat stroke.
guys i'm not complaining about the presence of the video. i love Ken Block,. i'm just saying that the frisco video was IMHO better edited, with better tricks, better driving and the tridimensionality of a city like frisco was awesome for that kind of stuff. maybe the Fiesta was a car better suited than the amazing mustang of this vid, a smaller and lighter car for doing this kind of stuff is more agile.
@RSDeuce Nobody in this thread said it was easy you are abjectly misusing quotation marks. I definitely can't do it and it is amazingly skillful. However, if, like in your example, there was a guy who could do manuals down DH trails I would watch the shit out of one or two videos and be amazed, just like I did with Ken Block. By video 7 if that is all he did I would be getting real jaded though. I would be asking for a story, for something new.
Two things: 1. Gymkhana has become boring by now. All the same stunts over and over again. 2. He still doesn't get any of the shots right the first time. If I counted correctly, there were three scenes that were good on the first take.
TBH, you notice more and more money is going into these shorts, but they are declining in quality. Probably because it is not about Ken Block anymore, but rather about his Sponsors.
So... why pray tell the infamous 'Bronco Chase' scene? Ken Block sees Public Burden, and has taken on the Case? Or does Ken Block not know OJ Simpson's Silk Stockings size??
Ring ring..... ring ring.... "Hello Doctor's surgery..." "Hey suckers! I got a boner from watching a car do spinney things, and now I have a serious medical condition which needs urgent attention but instead I'm just gonna rub your face in it until my dong goes gangrenous! So long mofo's!!"
it cracks me up how pinkbike swings from the nutsack of all the vids that have nothing to do with mtb, but have lots of 'crossmarketing appeal'...........
do you think the car websites have vids up about mtbs? doubt it, they could care less about our sport.
why are we soooo infatuated with motor sports on this site?
a slow 'mtb news' day is a slow 'mtb news' day, but still......................
I wouldn't say infatuated... Last time I checked car videos only make the Pinkbike homepage once in a blue moon. It's just cool and action packed stuff that interests people. Instead of hating on it, just try to enjoy it.
Quite a few of the motocross sites I frequent post up MTB videos. In the forums there is always talk about Rampage. Hell in Transworld MX the most popular MX magazine for sale there is a whole section dedicated to MTB and MTB gear. Everyone needs to calm down about the motorsport videos. Did one car video among the 20 MTB videos really ruin your day?
@stacykohut The only example I can think of is when Jalopnik loses its collective sh*t over Rampage. They've been thoughtful enough to post about McGarry's backflip a few times plus footage from this year. Personally, I don't care if PB features car antics 'cause I'm catching these posts on other sites. Now when they post about mountain scooters and e-bikes....
Monster Energy really is a weird company. They sell sugary green poison to impressional children/teenagers and ill informed young adults primarily, but because they sponsor and at least contribute to insane things like this video, everyone loves them.
A product so horrible and poisonous not even the athletes they sponsor will drink it, instead opting for water filled Monster Cans.
Yea these companies sell poison, it's a choice to drink the shit. It's not like people don't know it's bad for them. But these companies bring a lot to mtb and other action sports through this publicity.
True, I know Hunter and Vanderhaam have both turned down energy drink sponsors because they don't want to promote such an unhealthy product. Coffee all the way
Please, enlighten me as to where the "poison" is in these drinks? I looked at the ingredients, and I don't see it. They even use real sugar instead of corn syrup.
Calories its the Unit for energy. Its how much energy is contained in a product, not only in food. In case of food it is what can be used by the body to function.for example when you run you need energy which means the body uses up calories which you added into the system in form of food. Zero Calories means the product has Zero Energy... hence energy drink is quite an ironic product name.
If it would be how much energy you need to digest something... well...you would get slimmer by eating more burgers... look around you.... it does not work that way... lol
Ok... you also need energy to digest but that's not what is meant by the numbers next to the pictures of burgers at MacD...
I guess I worded it wrong it is the amount of energy you need to expend to burn it. The reason you get fat by eating too many burgers is because the amount of calories needed to burn it is generally greater then the amount of energy you actually expend.
Well action sports athletes historically don't have the best record of getting sponsored by purified water companies or all natural, healthy food brands, now do they?
Who the f*ck cares. The ones who drink that crap are either drunk or not heavily into the sports the company sponsors so they're dumb fatasses to begin with. Who cares? They're going to die out soon anyways.
thanks scott-townes.....having said that what the f*ck is so unhealthy about these drinks anyways-yes heaps of sugar/corn syrup and caffeine.....those that like their coffee sweet are essentially drinking the same thing.Sugar is bad but heaps of shit has heaps of sugar apart from energy drinks-at least they are what they are named...unlike some of the shit that gets peddled as healthy such as low fat option foods. Great vid too-nothing like sound of a screaming big block engine and take RSDeuce's comments about insane skill with drifts with such small tolerances for potential disasters.Thanks PB
One of the most toxic substances in common usage on the planet today: caffeine. Doesn't matter where you get it from, caffeine is a toxin. Of course, at the quantities we consume it at, it's completely fine, our endocrine systems are pretty good at their jobs. Just like they handle pretty much every other toxin we consume.
Every time I see somebody start screaming about how energy drinks are poison, all i hear in my head is Andy Samberg screaming "I'M AN ADULT! THROW IT ON THE GROUND!"
I think people are getting hung up on and taking the term poison too literal.
So Monster doesn't actually inject cyanide into their drink , still doesn't mean you should be drinking it or that it is safe or healthy for 13 year old impressionable kid to be drinking it 3 times a day because he sees the monster logo plastered over everything he likes.
@michibretz Caffeine, regardless of the source, is a stimulant. stimulants affect your brain chemistry in order to speed up neuron function, which boosts your energy level. your body has plenty of reserve calories that it can burn at any time, just because caffeinated drinks triggers your body to burn those due to an adrenaline-like reaction, rather than providing the calories directly within the beverage, doesn't mean it doesn't enhance your energy level. science.howstuffworks.com/caffeine4.htm
People have died from drinking too many cans of Red Bull, I once had three and it seriously felt like my heart was going to explode. If you're having one at a time once in a while you'll be fine; the problem is a lot of people aren't doing that. That much "energy" is incredibly hard on your heart.
It like saying you have a Powerboat with out an engine (ZERO kilo watts horse power) or a silent loudspeaker, a round corner, an underground skyscraper or whatever other supid combination yo can think of.
damn marketing without education is really a dangerous thing...
for sure there is a lot of substances in that kind of drink which can ad will influence your brain chemistry or metabolism or whatever Just like they are in almost everything we consume on a daily bases. I don't argue that. Still energy needs to come from something but in this case it will not come from your "energy drink"
you're sticking to the definition of stored energy, which isn't the claimed effect.
When people talk about how much energy they have, they aren't talking about how many Kcals they have stored up in body tissue. They're talking about how energetic they feel. Stimulants increase that feeling, by their very definition. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimulant
I'm with @groghunter on this one. Zero calorie energy drinks do not contain energy, but they contain multiple stimulants (most of them) that increase your level of alertness and, according to some, can increase your athletic performance.
Black coffee has essentially zero calories, but it definitely wakes me up and keeps me awake.
From the Monster website: "Monster Absolutely Zero: helps fight fatigue, improve mental performance and focus, and motivates you to work ( I mean play ) harder, so generally you feel pretty damn good."
All of Monster's claims are debatable, but they do not claim that it CONTAINS energy. I'm not a fan of the taste or the caffeine jitters, so I only have energy drinks when it's really important to stay awake, such as overnight road trips. I drove non-stop (except gas/bathroom) for just over 30 hours once with sugar free monsters. I didn't fall asleep, but my urine looked like toxic waste!
you did not make a single point that's why its funny and why I am still writing writing to you. You are like a puppy chasing its own tail. really fun to watch...
i said in the morning i think it is funny they are advertising the fact that it holds no energy on a product called energy drink. what else do yo want me to say?
but well if you want more, here you go: By your logic the product would have to be called Stimulant Drink or even Energy-Draining-Drink. Or just "DRUG" because what you are describing as the intended effect is pretty much the same as a cocaine high...
Wikipedia quote: Cocaine increases alertness, feelings of well-being and euphoria, energy and motor activity, feelings of competence and sexuality.
And you know what, after that high, any high, comes the crash and you know why? Because the body drained its energy reserves. Ant that's exactly where we return to the ironic part. After consuming this "energy drink" you fight so hard for you will actually need to put more energy back in your body than before... cool huh?
Caffeine is very much a drug. It is a stimulant, as is cocaine, so it isn't surprising that they have similar effects.
By the way, I burn the calories contained in a regular monster in less than 20 minutes during hard exercise. Drinking a Monster for the chemical energy it contains isn't the point. The stimulant effect is the main point... The sugar is only there to make it taste better. There isn't any energy drink I have found that I think tastes particularly good, but the ones with sugar are generally better.
the first sentence: Caffeine is the most popular and widely used drug in the world.
Yes it's a drug. So is Ibuprofen. So is aspirin. So is Menthol, which is the active ingredient in pretty much every "natural" cough drop in the world. None of them are poison simply because they happen to be drugs.
The only way I'm chasing my tail, is that I'm feeding a troll named michibretz, who thinks the only possible usage of the word energy in the English language is the definition used in physics. Which even Merriam Webster lists as the THIRD definition, AFTER two that use it to describe how energetic a person is. www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/energy
dude Seriously, i never questioned the effect of contained chemicals nor did i comment on them being good bad or whatever (you are welcome to read back), but as long as someone sells a product called "energy drink" and advertises it saying "0 Calories = no energy" i will not be able to walk by that product in a store without smiling to myself...
You don't think that's funny, well my friend, that's your problem. I think its hilarious!
uh something just came to my mind, you are actually right! Me and the can saying 0 calories are totally wrong! sorry for trolling you...
assuming a big can of energy drink which has a mass of about half a kg usually stands on a shelf which lets say is one meter high that actually would result in the can containing a potential energy (U = m * g * h ) of 0.5*9.81*1 = 4.905 Joule or about 1.17 calories. Therefore if this can of Energy drink would fall from the shelf onto your foot you indeed would be energized and i would be even more amused than i am already by just walking by this very shelf with out you being "energized". a win win situation...
If you want to continue to prove you're unable to comprehend the definition of a word, unless it agrees with your contrived argument, go right ahead.
I must say, however, that it's pretty disingenuous to claim it's all about "smiling to yourself," when your first post suggested that someone should sue energy drink makers based on your flawed argument.
nice tire shredding! Dope car build! That thing is amazing! Pinkbike is full of haters.... who probably drive smart cars in tights with your side mirrors folded for more aero so you can get best strava score on your coffee run.
love this video! didn't think I could enjoy it more until the janes addiction started playing.
thanks to ken block for doing cool shit like this, even though he has a million other things that hes responsible for overseeing in his life.
thanks to whoever for making such an awesome car.
no thanks to monster regardess of their involvement. fuck energy drinks they are poisoning children.
thanks to the people involved in making this happen in LA.
thanks to pinkbike for posting this. it was kickass.
thanks to all the idiots making idiot comments on this page.
thanks to all the people out there willing to leave the safety of the harbour to try to do cool shit- like fly around in a car- just because its worth doing, as opposed to being a spectator in life while sitting at their computer complaining about all the worthwhile people who are trying to do cool shit. keep hating, tourists.
Most of you don't get the fact that this guy is drifting around tight corners that would be impossible to go around at that speed without kicking out the rear end.
Yes, we've seen it all before. But the fact is there's not many drivers that can drive, drift, and corner with the precision Ken can. I bet that there's only a few people here that can make it round a track in a acceptable time or even attempt to drift.
I only skimmed the comments quickly but I don't think anyone caught the Bronco car chase down the freeway. Run O.J run. I thought that was some good humor added into the video.
So damn sick
If rather listen to that 845 hp beast than all this gay ass music that's on most of these fucking mountain bike videos
So to all of you hating on the video go slap on another pair skinny jeans and a V-neck you homos
Exactly, i find it hard to care for these rehearsed promo videos when i know how he really compares to guy's like Loeb or Ogier on the real timed WRC stages.
Pity how bad he is in WRC, he is better than the other 20,000 guys around the world that wish theY were good enough to even be considered to drive in the WRC.
Car was dope!!!! ELANOR keeps her spot for fords... ken block super impressive & skilled driver but agreed 7 vids is alot ....even tho i watched it 7 times
that my wet dream in this video right there... not the mustang, f*ck that... 110 and 105 without traffic! can you imagine how fast we would be at the trail heads ???
YAWN. Cool car and all but yeah, 7th installment of the same thing is boring and after cruising through San Francisco it's hard to get excited about spinning doughnuts on flat ground.
You people are ridiculous. The amount of negativity is astounding. Seems like the only thing people doon PB these days is complain and talk *hit. If you didn't enjoy watching that you have serious issues. Have a nice day.
well driven! but what a noice thats why i love bikes - the better they are the less noice u ll experience ) and honestly if one compares how much effort it is to create this movie, to a good POV downhillrun and if you compare how incredible lame this vid is compared to the mentioned run - it´s a waste of money resources and most of all - time.
Yep. Nice car. And good skills and some new ideas of stunts and footage angles etc. But Ken Block is the opposite of Derrik Zoolander.
He can't turn right!!
" So what you trying to tell me officer is that cant go down this road because there's a guy doing donuts in the street!?!?!?!" ........Commence ROAD RAGE!!!!!!
Kocham gościa ale pewnie mało kto wie że jest współzałożycielem DC ... :v I love this dude but sure no too many of you knows he is co-founder of DC ... :v
I loved the San Francisco video. The mid air corner groove gave me the "Oooo-Ahhhhs"! This video left me with the "ho-hums", but I dug the hell outta the car.
Ken is good at gymkhana tire smoking cuz hes probably the only guy in the world doing it full funded..... Put him in the WRC stage and the guy cant even place. In short,...Ken everyone can smoke tires, I can even do it on my 29er (Ripley), the only thing impressive worth seeing is the cars you drive...lets start placing in the WRC and maybe youll turn out alright.
I don't get this argument at all. What does his race results have to do with these videos. To again relate it to mountain biking, look at a guy like Remy Metailler, who puts out some of the most rad mountain bike videos out there. How would he place if he entered a world cup race? Do we shit on his videos because he wouldn't sniff the podium?
Yeah, the OP's craziness is analogous to hating on hardcore awesome street riders because they wouldn't place in the Dew Tour. Just like street riding trumps contests, "Hooning" trumps lame car races. (Not that the WRC is lame but racing in general kinda is).
And Block came 12th in the last round of the WRC in Spain. He was regularly placing around the top 20 when he raced. Being the co-owner of DC shoe co. he just didn't have the time to race all the races. As this article shows he's a busy man racing as much as possible www.wrc.com/en/wrc/news/october/block-wrc-future/page/1904--12-12--1801.html
I liked this but the creative team should have been involved before he did the sanfransisco edit. if they were, he could have used the mustang in sf and done a bullit theme.
It sometimes takes professional riders hundreds of times to get a trick perfect on film, the amount of tries it takes doesn't take away from how awesome the trick is.
No difference here.
I got my grandpa to watch this and he cant get his head around it he says its suck a waste and its not real. I ask why and he said because it was to crazy to be real. lol
I get it.. Ken Block.. he's really effing good at making his car go in small circles around hot dog stands... what I don't get is what this has to do with mountain bikes. I mean he's not even driving on dirt ffs! If I wanted video of cars I would go to Pinkcar.com, thank you very much.
I am glad no tires were hurt during the making on the video...................maybeee not.
In my boring world, a car get's me to the place I will be biking from.
I think I would still take Eleanor over Block's monstrosity though. Eleanor was mostly stock; Block's Mustang is almost entirely custom, including the entire body.
I just keep noticing all the black marks already on the roads.....and think....anyone ca be a great driver when you cut and splice the video together with multiple takes.....lol
Lets see him do the same thing in a Toyota Corolla!
Haters gonna hate..
no I believe that MTB videos are compiled pieces of individual video sectioned together by someone in a office to make a thrilling and epic saga for young persons to watch and enjoy.
Yea man I with ya @ 5:09. Looks like a couple of Chocolate éclair's and a bunch of chocolate frosted and I'm guessing a few Jelly filled up there on the top shelf. Finally a Ken Block video with some actual DOUGHNUTS! Mmmmmmm
This dude can't drive, he hit the cart at 2.37. Thats some spatial awareness to come out of the smoke going in the right direction. Great driving but too long.
Car goes vroom vroom, there's smoke and squeely tires as well as a bunch of Monster decals everywhere. I am the least bit entertained. Way to ruin a classic car.
By the end when he was doing the donuts around the barrell I was thinking "he's already done that"
If its not your thing, ur probably not gona be entertained by it.
Im sure drifters/rally racers will look at mtb(all disciplines) and say to themselves.. ive seen that before.
Well at least there'll be some indoor edits from the top dirt jump/slope style riders like Rheeder. If that's your thing hahaha.
Those "donuts" are to car driving what an infinite wheelie on changing terrain is to mountain biking. Sure. "Easy", but your ass can't do it and neither can your friends. All semi-pro and pro drivers (bikers)? Sure. "Easy".
1. Gymkhana has become boring by now. All the same stunts over and over again.
2. He still doesn't get any of the shots right the first time. If I counted correctly, there were three scenes that were good on the first take.
TBH, you notice more and more money is going into these shorts, but they are declining in quality. Probably because it is not about Ken Block anymore, but rather about his Sponsors.
btw: in my opinion a thousand times better then gymkhana

people letting their kids consume sugary drinks multiple times a day, or highly caffeinated drinks multiple times a day, is a parenting problem.
Per definition (and printed on the top of the cans) there is no Energy in this Energy drink.
