Tracker re-issues marching on
July 2nd, 2008 by Kilwag
Tracker has reissues of a couple decks stocked in new colorways. The GSD model and a Lester Kasai. That’s great and all, but what about Dan Wilkes? And while we’re at it, they should do a a proper Kent Watson model. Me, I’m waiting for the Tracker Man watch reissues.(No, I’m not.) Available at Tracker Trucks. I hope those boards turn… Yes, I’m phoning it in today.

I always wanted that Lester, I don’t like the top graphic on the lester though… seems like an “after thought” collage.

I’m waiting for Tracker to re-issue the 777.

Where’s the Kent Watson model?

Randy, I actually bought one of the Tracker watches on ebay about 5 years ago. Still in package: GSD doing a rollout off a car.

The GSD shape is like the silhouette of a bomb. So what’s the story of Buddy Carr taking over Tracker? I assume Larry Balma is out of the picture. I see Larry needing a second job shortly after launching the 45 pound Aggro for street skating. And was it a spoof or did Gonz and Ron Chapman ride for Tracker for a short while circa 1991?

Pete, You’re correct. Gonz, Ron Chatman and Jeremy Klein rode for Tracker together for one brief moment in time…to develop the Aggro truck which ultimately bombed in popularity.

Kudos for actually having wheel wells.

Got one of the first GSD reissues (natural stain) about 2 years ago - the last one according to Tracker - Signed by Garry
Have been dying to skate it but couldn’t bring myself to do so……..guess I’ll be skating a blue one soon….
Wish they would re-issue the “fish” one from after this model….never saw one in person, only on artofskateboarding.com….

Interesting, those are old school bolt holes, at least on the GSD they are. I just noticed that.
