i don't think they operate anymore. Moonwalk owners now have moved into bigger and better ventures which is the scooter brand, apex.

They owed the company that was making the apex stuff lots of money, and that company decided to take apex for themselves. It's a shame, because it was all top quality stuff made in Aus. But the Blunts and Madds who get there stuff made by cheapo toy manufacturers in China and you guys who are happy to ride around on toys that cost just $10 to make are all to blame...........

You need to think about the future for yourselves........ all the time you support these so called "Australian Owned" companies who buy cheap and sell expensive, your simply killing your own chances of getting a job later in life. Unless of course you want to work in China I suppose......... The Aussie companies make better quality and as far as I know, offer genuine warrenties...... They may be more expensive, but you pay for what you get. If someone gave you the choice between a K Mart pair of shoes and pair of DCs....... you would go for the DC every time. But you all buy crappy Madd stuff in K Mart over quality Aussie made........... If Madd was that good it would be in all the top surf and skate shops not in K Mart......8)

Don't get to hung up by the Billy Rainbows and Codie's........... they get paid good money to tell you guys how good Madd is. If someone like Moonwalk or Mutts offered them more money they would do the same for them in an instant..............

apex is not dead. it was just sold to the manufacturers.
but yeah, i agree with bart ender. companies like madd and blunt are the shitty
commercialised brands that are in it for the bucks. but we aussies have to support
the real aussie companies. eg: Downside and apex. madd is australian owned not australian made. they get pesty factories in china to make their products. kinda like
what nike did. it back lashed.
