Santa Cruz 8.25 was getting some serious razor tail but still had some life, passed it onto a kid at the park with the jankiest deck.
Flip Luan Oliveria 8.12 - dimensions on the sticker were way off, listed as 8.12 x 32.2, was 8.12 x 31.75 x 14.125 so pretty close to a BBS 8" deck
BDskateco 5.25 Hollow Kingpin Trucks - BDskateco is a Spanish board company what started making trucks and wheels recently, all their manufacturing is based out of China. Their product has been flooding Asia because of the hardgoods drought. I'll get into my review of the trucks below.

The BDSkatebo trucks were pretty meh, they are relatively tall at 53mm (after riding Thunder Forged) and heavy at 340g. They extend WB out a fair bit, close to 3.4" so very similar to a Venture Hi in terms of specs. Really didn't enjoy the height on them and coming from Thunder 148 Titanium these felt incredibly clunky. Coupled with the WB extension and height, the pop feel was really heavy. Also the bushings were tall and conical + barrel almost like a longboard height, turn was adequate but Ventures felt way better.
Gave them a solid 2 hours before I swapped out to Venture 5.2 V-Hollow Lo and the board immediately felt much more lively and easier to pop. My legs were pretty gone at this point but the pinch was definitely superior, not entirely fair to say since the Ventures were worn in with the grind grooves too.
Overall decent for the price ($43, same as a standard Thunder / Venture) but not an orchid skater like me.
