2010 Ford Mustang Skates Unleashed in LA

Filmmaker gets to unleash his Mustang side... As part of the Ford ’10 Unleashed' campaign, director Jeff Richter, with the help of professional skateboarders Pat Duffy and Jake Brown, took the 2010 Mustang and used it in a few tricks on the streets of Los Angeles.

“I wanted to unleash my Mustang side by taking the Mustang and making it do the impossible,” said Director Jeff Richter. “Wall grinds, tail grinds and 360 kickflips – this skate video shows the Mustang doing the most amazing stuff you’ve ever seen.”

As seen in the three minute skate video, the 2010 Mustang showed its skating skills to the pros. To watch Duffy, Brown and the 2010 Mustang skate the streets of Los Angeles, check out the video below and behind-the-scenes footage from the shoot on the campaign’s website.

This experience is among several other dream Mustang experiences Ford is bringing to life with “The ’10 Unleashed,' including American rap singer and actress Queen Latifah driving a 2010 Mustang like a Pro in the extended music video for her new song “Fast Cars”, and four gamers tested their Need for Speed SHIFT in real life at Willow Springs Raceway.

“Jeff Richter has directed and edited some wild videos in his career, usually the result of filming guitar-wielding musicians on- and off stage. But despite his experience with theatrics, nothing could prepare him for this,”
the statement on the campaign website reads.
