Ken Block Dies

[Sandy Johnson]

Wow. That’s too bad. I remember watching the first gymkhana and being blown away.

Donuts around the Segway... That's when I learned it was a thing to do that type of driving. Blew my mind.

Snowmobiles scare the crap out of me. It's like getting air on a massive couch- all good as long as you stay on the correct side of the couch.

 

[Pat McRotch]

Damn, wasn't expecting that.. that really sucks. I really wanted to see him run the Hoonipigasus.

To late to call dibs on his stuff?

 

[Provience]

Shit, koby died early in 2020 and that turned into an epic shitshow of a year. What the hell is 2023 got in store that even Ken block checked out right off the bat


Bummer to hear, he certainly made a huge impact on this country, even the world. Pretty crazy for a dude making shoes and living the "extreme sport" life.

What does one of those weigh?

Guessing more than a Jet Ski, and not landing on water

Most sleds (2 stroke) are 500ish, looks like most of the jet skis are more than that now.

 

[Wheelin66bronco]

Damn. That sucks. Very skilled in all things motorsports. RIP. Thoughts go out to his family.

 

[Wheelin66bronco]

Sad to hear. Would have thought it was an avalanche with all the avalanche risk this year.

Guy had great car control

Agreed. It's bad this year.

[AKnate]

He just put out a video of his racing season like two weeks ago on his YT channel.

RIP

Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye actor) got injured clearing snow at his Reno property - critical but stable now...
2023 wiping folk quickly.

Ran himself over with a Tucker.

450 lb.

A guy died on rabbit ears 4 years ago in a similar situation. Went right up a small cornice, and the sled came down on top of him. Broke his neck.

For some reason I thought more, Still almost double what an old school standup weighs at 240 lbs.

And yes, some modern multi passenger watercraft get near 1000 lbs.

[Sniffler]

RIP Dude. You kept me entertained.

Probably keep on going as is, it is a separate entity unto itself with Brian Scotto at the helm.

Notice how the Hoonigan stuff changed back in '21? Wheel Pros acquired them.

So it’s not the weight of the sled. even if that fucker was 100 pounds you would still be fucked because you’re sitting on 3 to 10 feet of soft snow so you try to push the sled up and you just push yourself deeper there’s just no base to get out from under it, you’re helpless.

So did the guy that bought Ken's raptor on Bring a Trailer just win the lottery for an investment?

No Reserve: Modified Raptor-Style 2009 Ford F-150 SuperCab

I don't think thats even a real Raptor. Ad says "Raptor Style" and its an 09. Raptors didn't exist until 2010 .

IMO we lost a good guy. One an amazing driver, two self made man, and three amazing family guy.

RIP
