Paying tribute to Ken Block, who died yesterday in a snowmobile accident 🏁
said: ‘It’s with our deepest regrets that we can confirm that Ken Block passed away in a snowmobile accident today. Ken was a visionary, a pioneer and an icon. And most importantly, a father and husband. He will be incredibly missed. Please respect the family’s privacy at this time while they grieve.
He founded the Hoonigan brand and pioneered the Gymkhana video series where he specialised in taking drift cars to the limit and beyond with balletic precision, vehicles bending to his every whim at the tug of a handbrake and stab at a pedal.The series was intended as a promotional vehicle for DC Shoes, but quickly became a Youtube sensation in its own right and propelled Block to global stardom.
