In this edition of the ImprimaturBMX Podcast Mike Hinkens and Richard Mungall are back together discussing the possibility of a huge paradigm shift in the economics of BMX. Starting from the question “What are BMX bike shops really for?” they discuss a new way of thinking about how we spend our money in BMX and, by proxy, how we give our support in BMX. From a model for a co-op style BMX shop/gathering place to the culture of free/discounts, the Mung and Mike lay down some heavy ideas drawn from outside sources that, if put into practice, could allow BMX to evolve yet again as the world around it changes.

In this episode of the ImprimaturBMX podcast, Richard Mungall returns to discuss some big questions including: What is Freestyle? Why do we do it? And why is it so important? Utilizing simple analogies, cross-cultural examples, and various philosophical approaches, Richard works to define what he sees as the mystical nature of freestyle as a way of being that transcends both bikes and tricks. Throughout, and in conclusion, Richard argues that we need to be consciously aware of ourselves within BMX in order to get the most out of life as well as the most out of the diverse experiences that constitute Freestyle BMX.
