In which Ken Block, Subaru rally driver and co-founder of DC Shoes (they make fat footwear for miserable, skateboarding teenagers), takes his wheels for a spin on a New Zealand mountain. As you do.

“All in all I’m really stoked on how well it went,” said Ken of the experience, which doubled as a cover shoot for Snowboarder magazine. “In all the experiences I’ve ever had, it truly was one of the most fun things I’ve ever done.”

Block is 40 years old. Surely it should be illegal for him to use the word “stoked” in a sincere manner?
