Tracker is still around and under the Select Distribution roof. Ownership has changed a few times. Let's see how they will celebrate their 50th anniversary next year.

@@yoyoskates Thanx for your quick reply. I kind of lost touch with the world of Skateboarding. But somehow still close to heart.I am passed the age of 60 by now. so not as active skateboarder as back in the days.But still going down the street with the(wind in my hair) wheels humming and the vibrations of the deck under my feet is so invigorating.

​@@janseger1693 I am still skating at age 59. I was just out in California for two weeks..... Mainly Freestyle these days, but of course I skated a lot of parks during my visit.

@@yoyoskates That´s awesome. great way to stay fit. almost nothing beats the sounds of your wheels spinning and the feeling of the vibrations going down the street.As for myself i need to lose some weight to feel better and not break my boards riding. i guess the main reason why i have not been skating this year sounds a bit silly. but it´s about safety. mine and pedestrians and cyclist. Back in the days when i rode just about daily i could stop on dime., after i had a majour accident on my bike. i am more worried about how other people would react. Not so keen of an other accident and ending up hurting someone else.But still have the itch in my feet. lastly. nowdays more of a skatehoarder than a Skateboarder . Though i have most of my boards. giving some away a few broken beyond repair. ops. seems I got a bit carried away.

What do you mean by that?

I get it but i dont think anyone should be wrote off. Screw em

Are you saying Duane is not that bad, or that Bill is as bad as Duane?

At the berea skate park? I remember him coming through

For real. Boomers resting on their laurels.

@@nicholasgeorge7825 I feel at this point, they could really buy over some of the die-hard Indy fans. They just need to ramp up production and social media interaction.

@@the_laybacks Bro, thank you for saying that. I'm going to visit my brother in Oceanside in a couple of months. I'm going to try and drop in on Larry Balma and pitch that exact thing. I'm so over satanists and their dumb ass "skate and destroy" motto. I have been working on some truck designs too. Say a prayer for me and Tracker.

@@nicholasgeorge7825 Yeah dude. It's funny, Tracker is now in a position where they completely 180 flip the Tracker/Independent relationship. Independent is becoming softer and softer by the day. Tracker could step up and become the new "fuck you" brand; the complete opposite of what it was in the 80s.

@@nicholasgeorge7825 Also, I won an Instagram submission contest with them in 2019 and they sent me some trucks, t-shirts, and stickers. Tell him I'd gladly be part of the team 😄

I have tracker b-52 from my og board. Still riding it today. Had to replace the bushings and pivot cups. It turns well with the right bushings. I have soft bones at the front. Indy or pig hard at the rear. Stock I remember is so so at turning. So soft conicals with flat roadside washers improve the turn vastly.
