Nathan Williams

Over the years, Nathan has become one of the most influential and revered riders with a long list of Number Ones under his belt but his humble approach to life keeps him perfectly balanced with the fact that he’s an absolute savage on his bike. Nathan grew up in Nashville and his father was a professional drummer, playing gigs and touring with bigger bands, so Nathan has all kinds of creativity in his blood. You can typically find Nathan driving across the US with his bike, some camping equipment, and his loyal dog, Jameson, and cranking some righteous tunes along the way. ⁣⁣⁣⁣

Nathan has been touted as the best street rider in the world. He’s X Games Real Street 2017 gold medalist and back-to-back 2016 and 2017 Our BMX NORA Cup Street Rider of the Year and Video Part of the Year winner. His video parts from Cinema, Kink, United Bike Co, Dan’s Comp and Etnies videos are legendary hallmarks of modern street riding.⁣⁣⁣⁣

Nathan doesn’t hit up too many contests these days, and his last visit to the winter Simple Session was 10 years ago at our 10th-year anniversary, so we’re especially honored to welcome the rider back! Nathan has also hit up two Simple Summer Sessions – 2011 in Helsinki (when the tail of Etnies BMX road trip also reached Tallinn) and most recently 2018 in Riga. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
