Independent Trucks was established in 1978 in Santa Cruz, California and is widely regarded for producing the best skateboarding trucks in the world. Their recipe for success is building skateboard trucks with quality aluminum and titanium materials making them incredibly strong and long-lasting.
As Independent has grown over the years, so has its product range. The Independent Stage trucks come in standard, hollow, or forged hollow versions in a range of truck sizes. They have also expanded to make equally reliable Independent bushings, bearings, and hardware.
A number of skateboard pros have their own signature models with Independent, such as Andrew Reynolds, Luan Oliveira, and Leo Romero. Other legendary riders like Brian Anderson, Evan Smith and Aaron “Jaws” Homoki have all had the pleasure of riding with the Independent crew. We shouldn’t only judge a skateboarding brand by their team of pro riders but if we did, Independent would be right up there.
