Now, I don’t know how widely publicized it was at the time, but the last issue of FP was it’s last issue in print. 100% online. And you can check it out if you scroll down a little.

But I want to take this opportunity to talk about some stuff. Heavier stuff than I usually talk about here.

Lots of issues contributed to the demise of FP in print. But the biggest was a lack of dollars coming in from advertisers.

Now this topic has been done to death, and I don’t want to go on like a broken record. But right now, the Australian BMX industry is hurting.

Do your bit. Buy from your local shop, support Australian brands when you can, and keep your money within the scene. Fuck overseas mail-order. If you see a kid repping a mail order sticker, tell them whats up.

That’s enough of the heavy talk. Here’s the new FP and despite it not being in print, I’m super impressed. Bump up to full screen, read the mag and appreciate the crew that were involved in putting it together.
