Walk-Behind Greens Mower Attachments

True-Surface® Trekker™ products are designed to attach directly to your walk-behind. The Trekker™ product line consists of three separate attachments that fasten to your walk-behind.

  • True-Surface® Trekker™ Vibe V™ Vibratory Greens Roller

  • True-Surface® Trekker™ Greens Care Collection

  • True-Surface® Trekker™ NV 3x3

 

VIBRATORY ROLLERS THAT WALK

The Trekker™ Vibe V™ Vibratory Greens Roller is equipped with patented True-Surface® adjustable vibratory technology. Its adjustable vibration allows you to roll for turf health, speed, and consistency, while also letting you vibrate-in sand topdressing, remove dew, and smooth the greens after core aerification. The Trekker™ Vibe V™ offers five vibration settings to accomplish different tasks:

  1. Establish new greens

  2. Regular greens rolling

  3. Vibrate-in sand topdressing

  4. True your greens after aeration

  5. Prepare for tournament play

*The True-Surface® Trekker™ Vibe V™ offers the same great benefits as the original True-Surface® Vibe V™. The only difference between the two is that the Trekker™ Vibe V™ attaches only to walk-behind greens mowers, and the Vibe V™ attaches only to triplex greens mowers.

 

WALK-BEHIND VERSATILITY

The second Trekker™ product is the True-Surface® Trekker™ Greens Care Collection. The Trekker™ Greens Care Collection consists of one frame designed to mount directly to your walk-behind greens mower, and 13 interchangeable inserts to fit inside that frame. With 13 different inserts to choose from, you can perform almost any turf care cultural practice using your existing walk-behind greens mower.

*The True-Surface® Trekker™ Greens Care Collection offers the same great benefits as the original True-Surface® Greens Care Collection. The only difference between the two is that the Trekker™ Greens Care Collection attaches only to walk-behind greens mowers, and the Greens Care Collection attaches only to triplex greens mowers.

 

About True-Surface

A growing idea to a growing company

True-Surface's® story is one of pure American will and opportunity. While working for a local Toro distributor, John Humphrey, CEO, realized golf course greens rolling is a logical agronomic practice that he could sell. In 1984 Humphrey went out on his own under the name of Turfline, Inc., as a turf distributor working out of his home while developing the idea for the world’s first vibratory greens roller that would attach directly to a triplex greens mower.

His hard work soon paid off, and he was awarded the patent for the True-Surface® Vibratory Greens Rollers in 1992. That same year True-Surface® was used in preparation for the PGA tournament held at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis, Missouri.

 

 

Centaur Asia Pacific is the distributor for True-Surface range of products in Hong Kong and Macau.
