Manufacturing location

I stress this to whoever edits this article. Tensor Trucks are NOT made in China. Only decks by dwindle distribution are. --Ahmed 12:04, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tensor trucks *are* manufactured in China. Every pair comes shrink wrapped and they are labelled with a bar code along with "made in China" printed on it. Dubkiller 02:04, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It would make sense that the product is made in China, as Tensor's distribution company, Dwindle Distribution, owns a production factory (the factory is named "DSM" and exists as of December 2012) in China that produces the vast majority of its products. A video of the factory, narrated by Tensor founder, Rodney Mullen, can be seen here: Rodney Mullen - How Almost Skateboards are Made--Soulparadox (talk) 09:39, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am going to make an inquiry and put this matter to rest, once and for all.--Soulparadox (talk) 10:05, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

This article needs to remain. The brand was founded by one of the most influential people in skateboarding, Rodney Mullen, and the product has recently undergone significant enhancements, including the development of a proficient team roster.--Soulparadox 11:43, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Logo

If anyone can find an image of the new Tensor logo that is not subject to copyright, the article's logo image need updating. For reference purposes, the new logo can be seen at the Tensor website: Tensor Trucks.--Soulparadox (talk) 09:39, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
