A FORUM FOR THE ANALYTICAL DISCUSSION OF BMX CULTURE & Politics

PODCAST:
​
BMX Breakdown: Brian Kachinsky –
Advocacy, Influence, and Integrity in BMX

by Mike Hinkens
April 14, 2019
In this episode of the ImprimaturBMX podcast, Mike Hinkens and the highly-successful and widely-respected Pro BMXer Brian Kachinsky discuss BMX from the perspective of a paid professional, an X-Games Medalist, and also a down-to-earth street rider. They touch on topics including: being an advocate for BMX, riding for “big brands” versus “core brands,” sponsorships, and the concept of selling out.
