Thunder recently hopped on Instagram to share Nick Michel's new Pro Edition trucks that are set to hit skate shops this week. They look super sick and have a few custom little details that are bound to make them stand out on the truck shelf. Get a closer look at them below, along with some ripping clips from the man himself. 

The trucks feature a custom emblem graphic by artist (and what I assume, Nick's friend) Izzie Panasci on polished hangers with textured 'Team Edition' baseplates. The texture is tight! They're available in 148s (8.25” axle) and 149s (8.5” axle). What more do you need?  

Nick is part of this new generation of skaters that seem to be able to do it all. His talent is undeniable, but his approach to sketchy spots, his deep bag of tricks and the subtle way he lets his skating constantly do the talking is really cool to see. Always flowing, always easy on the eyes, we're big fans of Nick over here. 

Anyways... need some new trucks? Shoot, even if you don't, head to your local shop this weekend and swoop a set up. Not to be a broken record, but that texture is tight! It's no surprise that Nick carved a route of his own when designing these. Those personal little touches make all the difference. Yeah, Nick!
