“The final instalment of Pat Fisher’s Foundations of Style approaches the intersection of the terrains we ride and the issue of originality in BMX.  The article begins with an argument that – though the terrain we ride does affect how we ride – our concepts of what constitutes accepted “riding styles” affect how we interpret and utilize the spots we find in the world.  Pat continues to say that our natural human habit of organizing and utilizing the massive and complex world around us can infringe upon creative thinking and thus creativity in BMX itself.  Finally to round out the piece and the series as a whole, Pat concludes with a summary of the whole series and a restatement of its major themes.”
