Odyssey Adds A Bunch Of Flow Team Riders

August 24, 2017

It looks like the flow team for Odyssey just got a whole slew of new riders…

It’s always cool seeing the next generation of riders coming up through the ranks starting out with the hook up, then hitting the flow team and eventually moving on up to the pro ranks. Odyssey decided to go all out and add four new riders to their flow team to get that next generation rolling for them. You can now find Preston Okert, Hilario Olivos, Jarren Barboza and Jerome Odesa rolling around on dialed bikes loaded up with Odyssey parts. You can learn more about each of these guys and what stood out for Odyssey to add them to their team over on their WEBSITE. Expect to see plenty more from these guys in the future.

Game of BIKE – Cory Berglar VS Big Boy

August 24, 2017

It’s that time once again for a Game of BIKE that we’re sure a bunch of you have wanted to see. Scotty Cranmer decided to put Cory Berglar up against Big Boy in a Game of BIKE with some high stakes. Big Boy gets to be the flower girl in Cory’s wedding or Big Boy has to buy Cory 3 bags of chicken nuggets. As expected with stakes so high, both of these guys cooked up some solid riding, along with providing plenty of laughs all along the way. Check it out in the video below!

“As many of you know PUPPY ARMS is getting married. That being said Big Boy called out that he would be CORY’s flower girl. Cory decided he is going to make Big Boy work for it. Puppy challenged the Big Boy to a game of bike. COMMENT BELOW WHO YOU THINK IS GOING TO TAKE THE W!” – Scotty Cranmer

Billy Perry – GoPro BMX at Adrenaline Alley Skatepark

August 24, 2017

Billy Perry coming through with a fresh GoPro video from his time riding at the massive Adrenaline Alley skatepark over in England. This place has indoor and outdoor ramps and plazas, trails and more. It has something for everyone and it’s safe to say Billy and the crew had a ton of fun riding the place. Check out what went down!

“On day 4 of our England road trip, we hit up the biggest and craziest skatepark in England. Adrenaline Alley offers massive indoor skateparks, outdoor street sections, trails / dirt jumps, halfpipes, foam pits, resi ramps and much more. I strapped up the GoPro and give a tour of almost all the different parks.” – Billy Perry

We’re not quite sure how footage can so easily go missing, especially when it’s actually really dialed riding, but it happens. Well, it happens a lot.

Today, Anthony Perrin uploaded over 3 minutes of footage that he somehow managed to lose over the course of the past few months or so. Luckily, he found it and pieced together this raw cut for you to check out. As expected, Anthony produced some amazing riding you won’t want to miss out! Enjoy!
