Independent Truck Company is a skateboarding equipment company specializing in the manufacture of axles (or trucks ). It is probably the most famous brand in the world in this field. It was co-founded in 1978 by Fausto Vitello, and the first model (the Stage 1 ) made its appearance on May 23 of that year, in Newark (California). The company is based in Santa Cruz (California).

There are several hardnesses of rubber for skateboard trucks: soft, medium and hard. The trucks are originally mounted with medium gums. If you ride very tight, replacing your tires with hard ones is a good calculation, so you will get the setting you want without crushing your tires and damaging the threads of your King Pin. Likewise, if you ride really loose, go for soft gums.
