One of the newest and up and coming skateboard truck manufacturer is none other than Ace Trucks.
Ace doesn't go with gimmicks. They grind well, last long and turn on a dime. That's what most people look for when picking out their trucks amidst all the brands out there. Ace just brings you the highest quality truck every time!
The company was founded in 2006 by Joey Tershay in San Francisco, CA. Until 2012, Ace was wholly run and distributed by Tershay and Steve “Shrewgy” Ruge out of San Francisco. From 2012–2016, Ace was distributed through Diamond Supply Company, a skateboard hard goods and accessories company based out of Los Angeles.
Ace trucks were designed using vintage, turn-focused trucks as a design template. Much like the Stage 3 Independent Truck, with some upgrades. The geometry of Ace trucks is designed to maximize their turning radius and allow the hanger to return to center following turns. Barrel-shaped bottom bushings are used for stability. The truck 
design is intended to maximize turning. A slight shortening of the wheelbase (1/4 inch shorter than the wheelbase of an industry standard truck) allows for sharper turns. Ace bushings have two distinct durometers (91a top bushings and 86a bottom bushings) to avoid the restriction of turning radius that can occur with barrel-shaped bottom bushings.
