Two New Blunt Riders Announced

So you may have heard that Blunt recently added two new members to their American team.  The first of whom being New York City’s Jonathan Zegarra.  Jon is a super tech street rider, and rides with Proto’s Jon Reyes a lot, whose tech style definitely reflects through in Jon Z.  Check out his day edit here-

The next rider to be put on Blunt is an upcoming park rider from southern California.  He hasn’t been around the scene long but you’d never guess that from his riding.  At just 15 years old he is already has the skills rivaling many of the country’s best.  His name is Michael Knudson.  I sent a few questions to Michael to introduce him to the team and to the world as the 4th US Blunt rider.
Name, Age, Location:
Michael Knudson, 15. Murrieta California

So you just got on Blunt. What made you want to be on the team?
I think blunt is an amazing company with amazing riders and parts and felt i could promote and represent blunt much more than i could any other company

What are you feeling now that you're on the team? What are you looking forward to about being on the team?
I feel great to be part of such a great company and now being on im really looking forward to traveling and meeting/riding with so many new people

Watching a few videos of you it seems that you're into doing a lot of different park combos. What influences you to ride that way?
I would say when i first started riding raymond warner was a influence considering he only rode park and i rode with him so much. I don't really know what influenced me to ride the way I do I just like doing a lot of combos haha.

What are some tricks you're currently working on?
Im not really working on any specific tricks im just trying to become a more well rounded rider..

Any goals or plans for the future?
I plan on progressing and making a lot of videos.

That'll wrap it up, anything else you'd like to add on?
I'd like to give a big thanks to Ryan Upchurch for giving me this opportunity and the homie Dylan Crower for helping me out and making me videos:)
Mike recently put out a throwaway edit with footage from before he was on Blunt, check it:

The addition of Michael means that one spot on the US Blunt team is still up for grabs.  Blunt is looking for another pro level rider on the west coast, so if you live in Cali or NW, and think you can shred, contact Team Manager Ryan Upchurch at ryan.upchurch@bluntscooters.com.
