Summer of Spriet

We hope everyone had as much fun riding street this summer as Justin did. This new video part he wrapped up starts off heavy, and ends even heavier. Enjoy.

Regular sessions on the T-1 ramp has undeniably helped Dugan perfect his ability to roast. Click on over to DIG for Tom’s thoughts on one of the most iconic backyard ramps in BMX.

Introducing Chase Krolicki

Chase Krolicki is the newest member of the Odyssey squad. One of Michigan’s finest, Chase first popped up on most people’s radar after his standout part in The Michigan Video in 2014. At the beginning of this year Chase spent a few weeks out in SoCal and hung out with some of the Odyssey team. He made a good impression on our guys and the video he filmed while he was out there made a good impression on just about everybody who saw it, so getting him involved with Odyssey made a lot of sense.

When I asked Travis Hughes what he thought about Chase, he said “He is literally my favorite person.” Can’t ask for a much more glowing recommendation than that, and the rest of us at Odyssey are excited to find out exactly why everybody’s so hyped. Everybody follow @chasekrolicki and expect more from this guy soon!

Odyssey VS. Miami
Dig Photo Journal

Make sure to check out Dig’s Photo Journal of our Miami trip with words and photos from Andrew White:

Walter was in the lead ski boat with the guide so that he could film the group. So he and the irate guide watched as half of the boats idled with little idea of what the fuck was going on, while one boat, captained by the very 17 year old Travis Hughes was going nuts. He was hauling ass at the rest of us, zig zagging in and out, and generally disrupting shit. And he was having a blast. We realized the tour was basically a lost cause and were mentally trying to pick up the pieces and figure out just what these guides had intended. At a certain point I looked over at the ski boat and saw the guide with his hands in a choke-hold around Walter’s camera.

Odyssey VS. Miami

Miami. What a crazy place. The entire Odyssey team spent a week in this outrageous palm tree and concrete jungle, and every day was a struggle. Tom Dugan, who’s back was already tweaked prior to the trip, had his bike stolen the first day. Jacob Cable fell deathly ill and was bedridden for most of the trip. Our Airbnb host tried to steal our bike rack, and our jet ski tour guide lost his shit when we were, according to him, being too reckless on the jet skis (he worries too much and also needs to chill). And we got kicked out of a lot of spots. And not just kicked out, but brutally screamed at and degraded, or even physically attacked. But the Odyssey team will not be stopped. These guys rode as hard as they could every day, banded together against those trying to prevent us from doing our thing, and filmed a damn fine video, even in the face of so much adversity. Enjoy!

Featuring Aaron Ross, Brandon Webster, Broc Raiford, Gary Young, Justin Spriet, Jacob Cable, Matt Nordstrom, and Travis Hughes.

Travis Hughes
Welcome to Odyssey Pro

Travis doesn’t know it yet, but he just got bumped up to the Odyssey pro team. Congratulations dude!

Like with most pro bumps, this was a pretty easy decision to make. Travis is so good at bikes, it can be pretty hard to comprehend sometimes. Also hard to comprehend is that Travis is still only 17 years old, especially when you realize he’s already been repping Odyssey for two years now. He’s been such an important part of our AM team, steady killing it on every trip and for every video, and it’s been a real treat watching his riding progress at such a ridiculous pace over the past couple of years. It’s been clear for a minute the time has come to turn him pro – check out his video and you’ll see what I mean. The kid’s got it.
