whats the easiest truck to transition to from thunder? I see a lot of you go from indy to venture out indy to ace without issues. rarely hear anything about thunder on that front
I guess Ventures, or Tensor atgs actually. Why switch tho
Tensor ATG, similar weight and WB extension as Thunder cast plates with less wheel rub during slides.
I would say Ventures. The height made Tensors feel more like Indy to me personally.
ATGs are much more responsive than Indys.
The odd thing about them is they are decidedly neutral in every [good] way; great turn, light, great pop, stable on center, very little wheel bite, nice stock bushings, excellent build quality, warranty, etc., they're just 'missing' a tensor 'trait', i.e., they don't carve slow or fast, or have a short baseplate, extended or tighten the WB too much or too little...are not hard to mount to your board, aren't twitchy, loose, carvey, etc., they just skate well and do what you need them to do (and if you get maglights, grinds for days and stupid, stupid light).
Honestly if they did a hollow aluminum truck I bet they'd get more traction.
