Some of the Thunder Trucks squad hit the streets of LA to test new Thunder T-IIs, and if you ask me, they made their point. These things rip!
With Nick Michel, Nora Vasconcellos, Joseph Campos, Chris Athans, Kasci Woolf, Jake Anderson, and Gage Boyle all putting them to the test, this edit starts strong and ends strong. Press play:
Thunder didn’t just rework these trucks. They properly upgraded them. And if you're still wondering how they hold up, seriously, press play. The skating speaks for itself. All your favorite LA hot spots get hit and then some.
With a crew like this? Well, there's a little something for everyone to get stoked on.
For you legit gear nerds, some of the key highlights of the Thunder T-II trucks:
- Remastered Geometry = More Responsive
- Taller 54MM Axle Height = Less Wheel Bite
- More Baseplate Slide Contact = Less Wheel Drag
- Quick. Light. Guaranteed For Life.
It's tough to reinvent the wheel when it comes to trucks, but not impossible. All the marketing talk and fancy wording aside, all that ever really matters is how the trucks work for you. So whether you're a die-hard Thunder supporter or you're just looking to try something new—or shoot, maybe you're just super curious like I am—head to your local shop and scoop a pair up.
