The second of June 040BMXPARK will host the first amateur & pro contest at 040 BMX Park called the 040 BMX OPEN! Vans, Paul's Boutique and Pro-tec joined in to make this contest possible and it will be well worth the trip to Eindhoven! We decided to work with prices for top 5 instead of top 3 so there's more chance to win something. Qualification will be 1 minute run plus two attempts for a last trick. Finals will be in groups in jam format. 
Putting a brake in your product line isn't all too hard. They've got this catalog over in Taiwan that has all the parts. If you you pay a few cents extra, they'll even print your name on it.

You'll need people for the design, the 3D drawings, the packaging and a team to test it all. But then, you can be proud on the finished product.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
