I've never understood how thunder 145/147s can be considered highs. Most low trucks are around 48mm, and I'm pretty sure those thunders are around 50mm. Indy's are probably the highest non-longboard trucks, and they're not even called highs, they're called "standards".

Try using another top bushing instead of a bottom bushing. I've heard of someone doing that and it drops the height significantly.

Well that video was entirely pointless. The only conclusion he came to was "Well....I don't really know".
I'm going to argue that Placebo owes their entire career to a Canadian dude's skate video part. Appleyard should be getting royalties for this shit.

I'm surprised none of the big 3 (Indy,Thunder,Venture) make a low truck in. 8.5?
Seems like they might have some people that would buy them?

I don't understand why people in these videos don't put some controls in place. Doing this test with two entirely different setups is pointless. The only way you'd actually be able to try to notice a difference between the trucks is if all the other variables were fixed; same boards, same wheels, etc. The guy even said it himself. If dude identified that as being a problem go fix it before you do the experiment, then come back and make a video that can actually draw some sort of conclusion. Did homie ever have to do a science project in school?

I'm almost as frustrated with this as I was with that useless video Transworld did a couple weeks ago.

No wonder he can't see the difference in truck height, he is a Scientology-guru. if you believe in that shit, you A) love berra or B) don't look at things carefully.

Now that this truck height video is out, i am going with (B)

it is confirmed, therefore, no one likes Berra.

Confirmed!
