By going to these bicycle tradeshows you get to talk to the industry people that keep putting new products on the market. Also distributors and dealers walk around looking for new products that they want to sell at their businesses. After a couple of days at the show you get an impression about the current state of BMX and although everyone likes to say that things are great, the overal feeling was that BMX these days is pretty stable. With the industry being run by BMX passionate people, I don't believe it's going away anytime soon.
