Blunt USA Announces First Pro Team Rider


So the search for the 5 Blunt USA Team Riders, is now the search for 4. A lot of people know that I am now working for Blunt USA as their US Team Manager. Which means it's been my job over the last couple of weeks to start taking applications from riders all around the USA who want to try out for Blunt...I have been getting some amazing riders turning in applications.

The first rider on the Blunt USA Team is...


Erik Feenstra


Erik has been in this sport for a LONG time...He was featured in some of the old Boons videos, and has always been known for having a signature smooth style. In the past couple of years Erik's riding started to really take off, he started to boost even higher in park, go even bigger in street, and get even more tech with rails, ledges, and manual pads. It's because of all of this, that Erik is the first rider to join the Blunt Scooters USA Pro Team.

Check out some of Eriks past videos below.

Erik's Latest "Throwaway" Edit.......Kills It

Big congratulations to Erik Feenstra. He deserves this spot so much for the time and dedication he's put into this sport.





And just so everyone knows. The search is STILL going on...I am still taking applications from riders throughout the USA. If you think you got what it takes, please send me an email at "Steven@bluntscooters.com". Be sure to include information about yourself, and any videos, or pictures you got. Thanks guys.

  10. lol Johann,


    No where did anyone ever say to be on Blunt you gotta be a Park rider and know all the scooter flip/bri flip combos, or be able to flip and flair and such.

    I'm not saying I dont love all the Blunt Aus riders, because I do. But this is Blunt USA...and I assure you that I will do my best at choosing guys, and putting this Team together..so that we will be good in all areas, and appeal to what all riders like to watch.

  11. So, peg combos are pretty much shut down for the rest of the US Blunt team. All his vids were sick and I envy his nose mannies sooooo much. Congratulations on Blunt Erik!
