For this weeks Quarantine edition of the SML Show, we invited the Godfather of FMX himself, Mike Metzger, out to the SML offices to discuss his career on two wheels, passion for tattooing and painting, and more! We even brought up one of Mike's early pieces of work he tattooed on SML's very on Dommer. Plug in those headphones and enjoy, this episode of the SML Show is surely worth a listen! - กีฬา
I can remember exactly the day he pulled back to back flips. The feeling still hits me each time I watch it.
The man, the myth, the legend, Mike Metzger!
My ex wife worked on you coming in the hospital many times .my son Eric Seeley was up and coming but got hurt as well .so had to hang it up .Thanks for all the good memories at Races watching your career grow !
The GOAT
Metz had a great life. Diverse. He was my generation and it's cool to see he's still doing it. Thanks Metz for all the years of entertainment in all the sports!
How can 2 Dan’s with k initials both look up Mike metzger!!! Fuxx yea! 🇺🇸
What an honor sir 🫡
@dan k 😂😂😂
Crusty Demons!!🤙
Mc and metz were my idols (still are) when I was 11 years old my dad went to Metzgers shop he had in Menifee and had him call me and say what's up I was shocked and overjoyed I was talking to my idol. He invited me to go to his shop so my dad took me and metz hooked me up with a sticker kit and a bunch of stickers and beanie. Thanks for the memories God Father!
Been a Metz fan since the 90's, he always sends it!
Mike is such a rad guy and a total legend. I remember when I was like 19 I played in a metal core band and we got asked to play for the grand opening of Mezger studios. After the show he liked us enough we got to come out to his house and play for his birthday party. One of my favorite memories growing up.
One of the best podcasts so far. Mike seems so humble and grateful for every opportunity that was put before him.
When Metzger went to jump the fountain that Robby barely made, and flipped over it, that was unbelievable. I can’t imagine being Gary, Evel, or Robby and watch that jump, talk about taking the wind out of your sales.the man is so humble I don’t think he has any idea how much impact he has , still on riding people who love riding dirt bikes.
I had these money green "velvet" LBZ baggie pants for a Vegas trip, those pants were so fly back then, Salt N' Pepper pulled me on stage at the House of Blues...it was like the "in style" thing. lol What up Mike Metzger! Good to see you!
Great interview! It's cool to see what great dad's people like Metz and Deegan are. It just goes to show how important family is to success.
Man that’s wicked hearing him say he was so heavily influenced by TLD. Always saw the similarities like the eyeball and flames but just thought that was a 90’s cultural thing. I’ve got a bunch of TLD lids on my wall. One of the 3 McQueen helmets has Troy’s signature. Unless I’m forgetting something but why in the hell hasn’t TLD done a Metzger edition, man that would be special and makes sense.
Hoooooold it wide! Braaap braap The Godfather!! Made some of my best childhood memories!
The back to back is one of those memories ingrained in my head forever
My all time favourite rider, Metz has always been the most influential rider of the 90s for me. Always had the biggest tricks and natural smooth riding style. Was definitely a character 🤘🏼
What a great guy... love Metz man..
100% The GoD Father MIKE mETZ
Pure RESPECT, Where are You Man its WW3 In AUS
Mike is a solid guy and so is his Dad. Happy to see him doing well. So much talent at everything he does.
was cool to connect with Metz on IG years ago.. i was prob considered a fan boy haha but still just told him thank you for the inspiration and happy to see he's still vibin'
Metz is a super interesting guy. Loved his segment in Terrafirma 4
Damn, I have a picture with Mike in the pits back in his early days at Red Bud. Enjoyed seeing how he is doing in the current times.
This was a rad interview, you guys should do jimmy hill sometime! Another rad dude on a bike
Dude is so chill now

Crazy I miss the days doing shows with Metz!!! My old band "EL DOMINO" rocked out many times with the OG! WARPT!😉
watching metz hit dunes is what inspired me to create unit back in 2002
I dedicate all my heel clickers to yoouu🎶. I luhv u Mike I luhyou soooo much Miike! Lol

Hey mike, remember when your dad jumped me at glen helen while we we battling 💪🏼😉. Excellent times old man!! Hope your happy in life bro✌️
Great interview. Super good guy.
I'll never forget when Metz landed that back to back backflip. I was laying in bed watching X games. When he landed it, I jumped up freaking out. I was completely mind blown. Such a badass legend!
CLASS ACT GUY!!!!
Don, hit up Mike for a face tattoo...
how about two mini thins and a Penthouse?
The Ocotillo Wells wizard!
🌵🍻😎🤙🏼🌵
Loved the show .. I used to pump concrete back in the day for Ted Metzger
when he busted out those 2 back flips is when freestyle was born
Sorry. When hart tried the back flip. Landed or not. That's when it got real. Someone had to try it first
Legend
True god father of freestyle!!
Goat seriously 🐐🐐
Great interview....
The legend 🤘🔥☠️
My last big crash was 2017 and some days usually when it's raining for some reason, I still lay on the couch all day overcome with pain. But i still own 3 dirt bikes and ride every chance i get, It's not just a sport it's a way of life.
Mr Metzger is still bad ass. I can honestly relate about being hurt all the time broke jaw / legs / ankles / wrists ETC Everytime I turned around. & what they Said is So TRUE Some Guys Get Hurt Alot & Some DONT. The Godfather Mike Metzger Wick On ✊
Cheers Great Mike👍👏👏👏
Mike from Freekstyle! BRAAAAP BRAAAP!
My idol as a kid
I dedicate all my heelclickers to you. Metz is an Icon. Cool to get caught up
So rad
Metzger is a lord \m/
He was fast and had great style, Red Bud 95' He smoked everyone in the first heat race on a sick RM 125 with a red seat.
Don’t forget Throttle Junkies!!
I had a pair of warpt zip offs. I got them from somebody that claimed they came straight from Metzger.. Idk though
We shared the same tattoo artist back in the day.
Hope Mike gets on the Deegan podcast someday. Did they have a fallout since like more than a decade ago? Haven't seen Mike with any of the former Mulisha members (like hangout or such).
Do you happen to know who built the engines for Suzuki Country, they built me a 90 RM250 that was insane fast, wonder where the builder went when they folded
METZ!!!
THE GODFATHER OF FMX !!
Great interview with metz but not so great how you had to throw in 25 ads in between which almost made it unwatchable
16:00 WTF!!! you just dropped my family friends names, I had a feeling you were from Big Bear!! Now everythings starting to click.... From a guy I used to look up to, now I wanna meet you Mike! I live by Van Dusan, let go ride sometime!
mm the best
All of the this seems like 3 years ago..
I never was into freestyle but always pulled for Mike the racer. In '99 he and Donald Upton rode hondas with custon IMS graphics (days before custom graphics) and wore warpt gear. They looked bad ass tho I dont think Mike raced that year I think he broke a femur before supercross. I miss the days of cool mx racers
How's Uncle Joe doing now ? I used to work and Race with him in the late 80's . I think I have a few photos .
The god father of freestyle motocross
Lord Metzger
Cat find any info on this Paint Works.

Where's jeffy
First to post a comment. Mike your a friggen legend !!
Whoops I 1 too many riding lol
I hope those are joggers
Idle why I'm typing all of this
I'll be the guy that says it....
Is he tired or stoned? Nothing wrong with being either but man he is very UnMetz Chill. Haha
People chill out over the years
Love Metz, but why does he look like he's had a stroke or something
Was just watching Dave Dawes vids.. Getting old sucks
Audio not %100
Kids this is why you don't do blow and get neck tattoos
he looks like a angry trailer trash guy now... weird. Metzger is one of my favorite riders of all time
Injuries dude, fucks ya up takes its toll. Trauma affects the mind and neurological system
