I remember seeing some of those in real life that were metalic blue with white flames on the hanger.

Pure class.

Do I remember some trucks where there was a rolling section in the the hanger, so instead of “grinding” you rolled?

Yep just done some Googling.

Z-Rollers

Both Daewon and Ricky Oyola were on the Z-Roller team. (Was John Dalton getting Z Roller flow bitd? I have a hunch he might have been, can’t remember for sure though). Z-Rattlers. Those shits sucked.

Continuing the unnecessary trucks theme, anyone remember these pointless wastes of time and resources?

Jones.

Built in lappers anyone? No one was jonesing for those abominations.

Webb

They managed to get a past his prime Frankie Hill on the team.

Titan, Ti-Lites.


Basically a Venture rip off that didn’t turn and was made of a titanium/cro-mo alloy :man_shrugging:

What about ranalli’s, that looked like the extra grindy bit on the top would immediately bite and throw you off

Yep, had ranalli’s on my first pro setup. Shite.

I was going to mention Theeve thinking that there’s no way they still existed based on the prices their trucks used to be. But no, still going strong. They sell direct to consumer and have a truck called the “TiHanger” that sells for two hundred and fifty bastarding dollars.

Great minds and all that

Had a play with the ally Tig welder at work on some old cracked trucks and it worked a treat . Really easy to weld and build up metal.
This is going to be my new Shoe goo for my trucks .
