It's time for the sun to come out. Looking at this cover I want summer to be here. Or you can go look for it. The trip to California has been booked but the weather reports haven't been that promising. Harry Main went to Spain and got himself some sunshine and the cover of issue #163 doing this flair drop-in or however you want to call it. Doing it on concrete makes it even gnarlier. Respect. What else can you expect in the new Factory Media production?

As if this little mag made it to 43 issues. So to celebrate this momentous and hella significant milestone, we pulled what we think is our best issue yet together. The split cover features Mikey McMah and Josh Kathigitis shredding one of the many pools being cleaned up in drought stricken South Australia. Read more about that in the feature spread from Dave Rubinich. We sit down with one of the most positive riders in the history of BMX; Kyle Baldock, hit up the Farm Jam, Cams’ Jam and Red Bull’s Roast It dirt festivals and take a little look inside Fit Bike Co’s Australian connection.

Plus 2020BMX magazine goes deep with Joe Rich on the creative process and take a look at Mitch Morison’s summer through his lens. And of course we’ve got a stack of gear to giveaway from Division, LKI, United, Armourdillo and tickets to Newtons Nation.

Slightly bigger than 'zine size it what Figure turns out to be. Smaller than the regular glossy mags so it will fit easier in your packpack on your next trip. The French BMX magazine is new on the market. This is the premier issue and the plan is to bring out a new one every 3 months. The downfall is that it's in French. It won't hurt whoever speaks French, but it's less interesting for everyone else. The content is in colour and it's got Albion type paper. Icons are made which will come back in future issues. Some of the content of issue one looks like this:

-Cocher: Corey Martinez interview
-Styler: Anthony Perrin
-Dater: FBM Ghetto jam
-Decaler: Clement Granier
-Participer: Vans Rebeljam
