This is probably one of the best ones in a long time. Ken Block may not be a good competitor, but he's an awesome Show Boater.

That was really good, actually.

Actually I think he's a great competitor it's that he's not the most competitive one. Great vid though
Thanks to the people of San Fransisco for putting up with the next five years of flatbillers crashing, er, drifting around your streets pretending to be him

You gonna dis Steve McQueen for encouraging hoonage with Bullitt too?
Neat.
The dude likes barrels just a bit too much. 
Does make me want to watch some bike trials though.
I liked seeing familiar spots from when I was there in January. Just don't remember it being that easy to find open parking spots. :-p
Cool vid.
Ken who?
Sorry, had to 
I find the guy to be sort of a toolbox. But he's managed to live out my dream and jump the hills in a fast car. So I gotta give him that.
His videos are always fun to watch and he is living the American dream so I find it hard to hate him.

Agreed. Flat brim or not.
No Lombard Street?

Met him in person. You know that saying about never meet your heroes? yeah....

Yep. Oddly enough, I think I like the Top Gear bit best.

Was there a subculture of energy drink consuming, flatbrimming wannabes that followed McQueen?
Anywho, I like the videos. I like Ken Block. No harm in doing the videos. Hell, San Fran could probably benefit from the revenue in fines to come.
(puts on flat brim and opens a can of Monster)...
"Dude, he can go lower."
damn bra! Monster Energy slammin intensity!! Bra, I dig it bra! Lets go get our frogskin sunglasses and Monster Energy shirts and Lime Green shoes and hi 5 bra! Ken Block is this generation's Ayrton Senna!!
Seriously, it's starting to become "The Hangover 2" for me. Same stuff. So predictable. Don't like him, don't care for his videos. I'm very rarely like this on the forums, but this is me being opinionated.
I liked the sideways slide/jump. Pretty cool.
So how much does it cost to close off parts of a major city in the USA these days?
Not that he and DC shoes can't afford it.

Lombard Street was there right before the sideways jump. He went up Lombard instead of the usual down you often see.

Nope.
A San Francisco friend on another forum said: It's Vermont at 20th where the Big Wheel Race takes place every Easter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=yvZo2iLYEJI#!
Hey guys guess what?
He started a shoe company. Not just any shoe company, a shoe company specifically for skate boarders. Now he's got so much money and time that he can close down San Fran just to hoon.
A shoe company...
We should all be so lucky.
The man is living the dream. Those look like some ugly ass shoes though.
That looked like fun, but he could have cut the number of cameras in half.

Well, he did lose one around the 3:37 mark. :D
