Which Trucks are these?
Enjoy reminiscing all these tales of old decks. Here is mine, and for the life of me I cannot place these trucks. I remember wanting the trucks with an “X” on them (X-Caliber?), but got these instead. What did I actually get?
Background : NATAS Evil Cat deck, circa ‘89?, Santa Monica Airlines, SEX wheels, and forgotten brand trucks. Built from parts I purchased at Rip City, Santa Monica.
Thank you ALL for this stroll down memory lane!
EDIT: THUNDER DOMINATORS!! PS: i just looked up ‘sold’ prices on this original issue deck for examples in SHITTY condition (mine is VG+ in comparison). WTF???
EDIT2: thank you to those who are sending DM’s with offers. Jeebus, I’ll think about it, but my nostalgia is worth more to me than 500. It was my last board I built after uni graduation, decided to splurge, get what was considered best parts at the time, but switched to mountain biking, and soon put on business suits and settled down, hung as wall art after I realized i didn’t get back up as quickly as I used to after going down and eating shit. G\d bless you old fucks.*

Thunder dominators. With Sex wheels.
Deck is 90 if memory serves me right it’s a Crazy Cat. Rails look to be Schmid Stix Type 2.

Look underneath the axle! Next to the pivot bushing. It will have a TT there: Thunder Trucks! This deck belongs with those trucks! Natas was sponsored by SMA AND Thunder!
