Ahh I remember the bearings!

Id change them every month!

NNB
GMN
Powell Bearings! Fuck those were spendy!


Remember the trucks brands??

Thunder (my favorite)
Trucker (real light graphite)
Independent (break em and get a new one snet to ya, and bragging rights)
Gull Wing (sucked and were heavy)

Were there any others?

And Vision Street wear. It was the rich skater boy gear! I wish I could afford it. I had to settle for cons.


I had the Caberello, A Mark Gonzelez, A Madrid Fly, a Block Head Jim Grey, and some other one I cant remember.

I aloways liked the Mark Gonzelez board.. Anyone remember what that one looked like?


And the wheels were softer back then.. Perfect ofr street. 85A was the best. I moved up to har wheels later 96a OJ3's and I remeber doing 20 foot 4 wheel slides. Those hard wheels would slide forever, and in rain forget about it!

But I miss those soft 85a Ratbones, or Madrid Flys, and the 92 A slime Balls!
