Maybe. That assertion was made by a noob who was talking out his ass.
I'm sure many trucks were "flowed", but that shouldn't invalidate the list.
I'm diggin the 44's I'm running and would genuinely like to hear what the Pro's think. |

Indy riders don't get paid unless they get an ad, or if they are one of three to get a signature truck.
Mostly flow as it's always been.
....so yeah, Ace flowing trucks doesn't invalidate their rider list. |

| A lot of Indy team riders get a case of trucks regularily and sell them out the trunk of their car... so they're getting paid indirectly. Some of them sell their old used worn out ones too. Cha-ching. |

Slob is 100% right, that is how I got my Ace trucks. That is how I get my Indi's most of the time, that is how pretty much it's done. As well some team members get boards, it's sorta a smiling obligation you can't let down a local even if they are on another team. Skateboarding is blind like that, now matter what grievance we always support each others products. We don't shit on that. You can hate the personality but business is business especially if it's a pro or team member that has to skate to live.
For the flow list of ams and other team members, I'm sure that is a few pages longer. |

| Nothing against those trucks but I think that list is more of a list of people who want to remain loyal to Joey than a list of people who would rather ride Ace trucks over Indy's. |

Dunno man. A lot of people don't like the Stage 9s. Even Salba supposedly rides Stage 6s and gives the 9s away. |

I can verify that; he talked about it over lunch when he was here in '06 - riding stage 6 hangers, and had sent several out to have axles replaced. |
