Merritt BMX – Mike Stahl Welcome Video
It’s always nice seeing a BMX video that isn’t following the exact same template when it comes to the riding. There’s plenty of trends to follow, so when a guy like Mike Stahl comes firing out with his own twist on things, you’re going to want to take notice. The guys at Merritt have added Mike to their squad because of it. Watch as Mike sends it down big rails, hucks supermans down stairs and out of grinds, puts his crank arm to good use and even does one hell of a curved wall ride. All in all, this is a BMX video that you’ll want to watch from start to finish because there’s something good to be seen in every clip.
“Mike has been stacking clips for a little while to put this together for you Guys. He rides a little different then most people and we love it. Be ready for a lot more from him this year.”
