Ready to impress with their light weight and responsiveness are these Blue Thunder Metallic Script Hollow Light trucks!
Hollow Lights are ahead of the game when it comes to maximizing strength. These feature a forged polished black baseplate, compression molded making them lighter, stronger, and more impact resistant compared to cast or poured-mold baseplates.
Forging also eliminates the most common manufacturing defects and imperfections.

For his first Pro Truck, Jimmy Wilkins wanted to help Skateistan. A portion of the proceeds from each of his trucks sold will go to Skateistan to support their skateboarding and educational programs around the world.
Thunder has been woven into street skateboarding for decades, standing as one of the most reliable and rider-driven truck brands ever built. Born under the Deluxe Distribution umbrella in San Francisco, Thunder emerged in the 1980s just as street skating was exploding and the need for lighter, sharper-turning trucks became undeniable. Where other companies chased beefier geometry and bulk, Thunder leaned into responsiveness, speed, and that signature quick snap that would eventually define an entire style of skating.
Through the ’90s and 2000s, Thunder became a fixture on skaters’ setups from EMB and Pier 7 to every ledge-spot scene that followed, earning its reputation through loyalty rather than loud marketing.
Thunder’s identity has always been tied to that SF street grit: fast, tight, and built for pushing the limits of technical skating.
