Either a Toy Machine price point board or a quasi 8.25 I hate the super small tails
It's probably just me but I always have problems with indy's
Ricta naturals worst wheels I've ever owned flat spotted on tik taks
Andele Marc Johnson bearings lasted maybe 5 weeks and didn't move after that
Mini logo grip not the worst but not great

Bonus shoes Emerica Provost 1's could not break them in at all, tried everything but still felt like bricks on my feet.

Zoo York deck, 1996-ish. Was never a fan of Chapman but in those days they were abysmal.
Unit trucks, 1997-ish. Pricepoint trucks, the first time I realized good trucks were important.
AWS Clone wheels, got a set like 2 years ago because I liked the shape, unskatable plastic garbage.
Lucky bearings, late 90s. Would explode on flat ground ollies, but the green shields looked cool.
Modus hardware, somehow stripped and allen head for the only time in my life on a new set of these.

I just remember being 16 and kickflipping a chunk right off the nose of my zoo York and that was the end for me
[close]

Damn, was this around the same time? Mine broke directly over the back truck (only time that has ever happened) when I ollied over a couple stacked boards. I think I remember some Ricky Oyola interview where he talked about how bad the boards were in the early- and mid-90s, but how everyone was just super dedicated and skated them anyway.

2003!! Their boards have always sucked unfortunately

Idk what they even do now after becoming like a Macy’s brand

They make some alright sunglasses. Got a set for like $3 from a Goodwill in Scranton and they're not too bad.

I used to be a total crail kid when i was 12
i skated
a 7.75 mike carroll girl deck the shape was awful and it chipped to high hell(same with every chocolate deck ive ever owned)
used to have some powder blue royal trucks that would barely turn even though the kingpin nut would fall off every session.
girl wheels because why not, def the worst i ever road but im not overly picky with wheels
shake junt bearings
shake junt hardware
shake junt grip
i was 12 and wore tall tees and baggy pants so obviously i had a soft spot for shake junt even though it wasnt under crailtap
still love lakai though always will the Manchester is forever one of my top 3 shoes
so worst shoes i ever owned probably ctas pro low or fallen victories,both ripped quick af even with suede and tore apart my heels.

carroll boards were always 7.625-7.63, unless this was after fully flared when he gained about 90lbs and needed extra surface area. but you said tall tees and nobody wore that shit after 2005. now im confused.

it probably was a 7.6 it was around 2009 so who knows, and i was basically the only one in my town rocking huge clothes i adapted to krew skinny jeans a lil bit later than everyone else. im from a small town so i was behind on the trends.
