Preston Okert Archives

Odyssey Tourism Bureau: Australia

Odyssey coming through with a banger of an edit from some time the team spent cruising parks and spots down in Australia! Hit play to check out what Broc Raiford, Justin Spriet, Preston Okert and Boyd Hilder threw down while out cruising. This looks like it was an amazing trip!

“Broc Raiford, Justin Spriet, and Preston Okert flew to the other side of the world to meet up with Odyssey’s newest pro Boyd Hilder and session the finest parks, trails, and street Canberra and Sydney have to offer. These guys rip any terrain and came through with a diverse and mind-blowing edit, and Broc even blessed us with a fresh NBD on a classic Sydney spot. Massive thanks to BMX International for making the trip possible, Backbone BMX, ACT Jam, BMX Mafia, Russell Brindley, Rhys Williams, Tyson Jones Peni, and all the other rad locals who made our trip so sick.” – Odyssey

Odyssey – Preston Okert Welcome To AM

Leave a Comment

Preston Okert has been given the bump up to the Odyssey AM team! The past two years or so, Preston has been on absolute FIRE taking his speed and style to everything he comes across. This video is a clear indicator of just why Odyssey gave him the well deserved move up the ladder toward the Pro team. Hit play and take it all in!

“Odyssey is stoked to welcome Preston Okert to the AM team! Preston rides everything and is up for anything. He’s a rare breed of all-terrain shredder whose top-notch skills and consistently good attitude make him an easy choice for any trip. He even dropped everything to get on a plane to Australia last month with less than 24 hours notice despite a new job and being 100 miles from an airport without his car…. He made it happen and of course killed it down under. Here’s the master of all-terrain himself Gary Young’s take:

“Preston has back-wheel boogied himself into the hearts of all those around him. His positivity, long smooth lines, and creativity have made him an absolute pleasure to share the deck with. I look forward to seeing where he continues to push his technical and often effortless-looking riding in the years to come.”

Tom Dugan is a big Preston fan too: “I’m looking forward to the long and steezy road ahead of this soon-to-be cold-cut savage. We breaking him in don’t worry!” Couldn’t have said it better myself. –Walter Pieringer.

Here’s a new one featuring Sunday Bikes‘ flow rider Jonathan Medina going to work on spots out in California and Japan. Going into this one we weren’t too familiar with Jonathan, but it’s safe to say you’ll want to keep an eye out for him since he shreds. This is filled with a bunch of great riding, but those ice grinds he does are smooooth! Check it!

“After a year of filming here and there and a while of sitting on clips we finally got it put together. Had so much fun filming this and seeing Jonathan go in on some clips. Couldn’t be more hyped to put this out. Shoutout Dan for filming in Japan.” – Preston Okert

The Odyssey team made their way to The Wheel Mill in Pittsburgh and Ray’s MTB in Cleveland.

Here’s a rad video Odyssey put together from a trip they did with QBP to get some riding time in at The Wheel Mill and Ray’s MTB. This video is packed full of clips that the guys got in during their time riding. Needless to say, it’s all good and this is one video you won’t want to pass up! Check it!

“With the help of our favorite US distributor QBP, we took Odyssey’s top ramp riders – Tom Dugan, Gary Young, Justin Spriet, Broc Raiford, and Preston Okert – to two of the best indoor parks in the country, the Wheel Mill and Ray’s. Naturally, with these guys ripping those parks, we came back with a killer video. Enjoy!”

This Is Preston Okert

We’ve been watching Preston Okert the past year or two and it’s been awesome seeing him progress and really develop as a rider. If you’re a fan of Chase Hawk, you will undoubtedly become a Preston Okert fan by the end of this BMX video. Style for miles and knows how to get down on everything from ramps to street to trails! Hit play and enjoy!

“It’s rare to find a rider this young who makes BMX look this good. At only 17 years of age, Preston is already turning heads and keeping style alive. I’ve heard many riders compare Preston to Chase Hawk. This may seem a bit blasphemous, but as you will see here, the similarities are uncanny. Watch, get familiar, and prepare for a huge future!” – Vital BMX
