Look: Thunder Introduces 'Pearl Lights' Featuring Unique Textured Treatment
Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on the Pearl Lights—the latest Thunder Lights constructed with a new dual-color stone grey/white textured treatment.
What does it all mean!? Well, these ain't your average trucks, that's for sure! Take a look and learn more below:
As a truck company, I have to imagine it can be hard to "stand out" amongst other brands, especially when it comes to, say, beginners picking out their first complete. Think about it? If you aren't a die-hard Thunder fan, or you haven't been riding Indys forever, or prefer Ventures or Ace—whatever—colors and graphics are your best ammo.
It's certainly nothing new, but with that said, many skaters like to keep things simple.
On the heels of that, I will point out that someone commented, "Does anyone genuinely buy trucks that aren’t just silver?"
It's a fair question, but it was quickly answered by a barrage of other commenters expressing everything from how much they simply loved how these unique trucks looked to how well they'd pair with specific boards and wheels to others saying things like, "Been riding these [Thunder] trucks for over 30 years!"
So, I guess the easy answer is—yes. They do!
For those who are here for the specifics, here you go:
- Premium Grade Hollow Kingpins
- Custom Forged Aluminum Baseplates
- 90 Duro Clear Bushings
- Sizes 147 / 148 / 149
I'll tell you one thing—I'm extremely curious to know how these things would feel grinding some concrete! Probably so rad.
At any rate, they're available now at skate shops. Let me know if you see anyone riding them at your local park. And for you skeptics out there, don't be afraid to try something new.
