Tensor Trucks: Rodney Mullen's engineering serving your ride

When the most technical skateboarder of all time and inventor of the kickflip decides to create his own truck brand, he doesn't do things by halves. Rodney Mullen founded Tensor with a purely scientific approach, analyzing every angle, every millimeter of metal, and every pressure point to optimize turning performance and pop. Distributed by Dwindle Distribution, Tensor quickly became the go-to brand for ultra-technical street skaters and fans of perfect geometry, thanks to its elite team featuring creative riders like Daewon Song or TJ Rogers.

The lightest trucks on the planet and perfect grinds

Tensor's reputation is built on its ability to push the boundaries of materials. If you find your board too heavy to pop your tricks or if you're tired of trucks sticking on copings, Tensor has the scientific solution.

Here are the brand's major technological innovations available in our shop:

  • Tensor Mag Light (The featherweight king): The brand's flagship product. Crafted from an exclusive magnesium alloy, these trucks are 29% lighter than any standard aluminum truck. Equipped with a hollow axle and hollow kingpin, they drastically reduce the overall weight of your board so you gain pop height and save energy during long sessions.
  • Refined turning geometry (All-New Geometry): Tensor trucks have been completely redesigned to offer an ultra-smooth turning radius and superb rebound. Control is immediate and predictable, preventing bad surprises when landing tricks.
  • Patented baseplate design: The baseplate of Tensor trucks is specially engineered to provide maximum impact resistance while reducing friction during nosegrinds and crooks. The contact zone is optimized to slide farther and faster, even on rough concrete curbs.
  • High-performance bushings: Tensor trucks come stock with top-quality bushings that quickly adapt to your riding style and prevent unwanted squeaking.
