OCD Rant on trucks v.234312423.0
See you in a week, on indy or thunder
(I feel your pain)
Haha yeah I can’t choose, skated the thunders today and all I can say is...
It’s all preference now, in the way of who you wanna support or how you wanna turn cause after today I realized the only factors that keep you consistent is basically riding the same gear. Everything
I been riding the same formula 4 gt 99a, modus bearings, and krooked 8.06 cromer, And gt blazers for the last 2 months and seriously almost every truck I plugged has worked. Some better than other but seriously they all worked(except stock tensors of course)
But yeah, the thunders were actually ok, my kick flips and everything were a bit better and more consistent cause of the lower height and stability but it did lack a little board feel and turn. Good turning trucks give better board feel and thunders lacked a bit but boy oh boy my kickflips sucked up to my feet and caught with huge pop so I might keep them on, especially since they’re my most expensive trucks
Titanium lights, light but it’s all gimmicks
Hollow lights are what you want if you want light, no need for titanium or soft magnesium
It’s always so hard to choose trucks but I say choose the set that is best for whatever skating you have fun with most and do the most, I love street pj Ladd/Shane O’Neil/Chris cole/prod/every pro who doesn’t really do tranny or vert style so probably gonna keep the thunders on. Especially for these crazy catching flip tricks, they just catch with little effort
