Ok let me put it to you this way, I've skated, Tensors, Grind Kings, Destructo, Ventures, and the Thunders were the best out of all of them.

Thunders are nice. But still I have Krux lows and they kick ass. Both nice trucks.

I searched for some reviews on Thunders. Here's what i found

Well these Thunder trucks were quite good. Good turn, smooth grind, light, it might sound good, but mine only lasted 6 months. Apart from them breaking easily they where quite good trucks, so I recomend them to someone who dosen't do anything with being in the air because they will soon break.

Reviewed by Tom.

Also a groups Top three list of trucks: 1. Grindking 2. Independent 3. Thunder

These trucks are really great, pretty much perfect, they aren't as light as grind kings but they last long and are really tough. Should be one of your top picks.

About the first things i found. so sounds Ok, but maybe not.

Thunders are the best way to go. They might be heavier than Grindkings, but only by a few grams(such a small amount that there would be no effect). Lack of weight in a truck does not equal it being a good truck. Thunders are strong, light, sturdy, turn well and grind nicely too.
