What is there to be eventful? BMX technology has economically peaked, there isn't really much point in spending money developing new technologies when the vast proportion of money coming in is based on trends. New colourways have a higher profit margin.

It baffles me that brands even bother attending these events.

Maybe it's to market their new trendy product or color-ways. Plus it does not look good on the companies image to not attend. For example Animal this year.

Damn, I slept on this. Good catch! Though it looks like a typo because it's so close. Maybe the v2 could be the 4peas bars if palmere ever leaves fiend.

I thought Animal was done but this popped up and it's part one dealing with Animals "past". I guess part 2 is "present". looking forward the rest but hope part 3 "future" won't be Ralph saying "We're done".

While your part 1,2,3 for past, present and future makes perfect sense, There are only 2 parts. Part 2 is suppose to come out next tuesday or wednesday From what I was told by Epic, and I'll give you a spoiler: It does not end with Ralph saying that they are done.
