I think GT were one of the best old skool companies, they had great race & freestlye products, all top quality, they were there early on & were still making great stuff well into the 90s.

My old skool favourite for freestlye is Haro  :)

For Freestyle - Haro - no question in my mind about that.

For racing either GT or Hutch.

All round Skyway, I reckon, with GT a close second.

Skyway.

The did great frames - TA & Street Beat.
The best mag wheels - Tuffs
Good Bars - EZ Bars
Hot Seat.
Platform.

They also sponsored some of the best riders in the world.  
Definitely had the best crop of UK riders - Craig, Neil, Carlo, Pepi, Scott Carroll, Stupps, Jason Davies.
