Jokin Ormaetxea Badiola (May 26, 1980 - October 24, 2004 near San Sebastian, Spain) was a Spanish professional cyclist who rode for Team Paternina-Costa de Almería.

Ormaetxea was a passenger in an Audi A3 driven by fellow cyclist Joseba Albizu Lisazo of Team Euskaltel-Euskadi when the car turned over after leaving the road near the town of Deba at approximately 6:40 am. The two were celebrating the end of the racing season. As of 2004, Albizu was hospitalized with severe injuries, none of which were life-threatening.

Ormaetxea's best result was 23rd in the 2004 Memorial Ricardo Otxoa. He had turned pro earlier this year.
