Thunder Trucks 148 Rowan Zorilla Zapt Raw/Black (Sold In Pair) delivers one of the cleanest modern pro truck colorways from Thunder Trucks, blending classic raw hanger styling with stealthy black baseplates and subtle custom detailing tied directly to Rowan Zorilla’s smooth, unpredictable approach to skating. The setup keeps things understated at first glance, but the more you look, the more personality starts showing through. Rowan’s name is engraved across the hanger in his signature jagged script, while the opposite side features a small lightning-style “Zapt” graphic etched into the raw finish for a subtle custom touch without going overboard.
Built around Thunder’s trusted geometry, the 148 size features an 8.25" axle width designed perfectly for boards ranging roughly from 8.12" to 8.38", making these an ideal fit for modern all-terrain setups. Whether you’re skating quick ledge lines in Pasadena, rough banks around El Monte, or weaving through downtown Monrovia parking blocks, the 148 maintains Thunder’s reputation for responsive turning, quick pop return, and lightweight control.
The raw silver hanger paired with matte black baseplates gives these trucks a timeless look that works with almost any board graphic. The polished kingpin hardware, black axle threading, and clean cast finish keep the setup feeling premium without unnecessary gimmicks. Thunder’s low-profile design also helps keep the board feeling stable and flicking fast, especially for technical street skating or quick transition snaps.
Thunder Trucks has remained one of skateboarding’s most respected truck companies for decades, operating under Deluxe Distribution alongside brands like Anti Hero, Krooked, and Spitfire. Known for lightweight construction, sharp turning response, and durability, Thunder has been trusted by generations of skaters from technical street specialists to full-speed transition destroyers.
Rowan Zorilla represents the perfect modern fit for Thunder’s legacy. Born in Vista, California, Rowan became one of skateboarding’s most recognizable figures through his effortless style, unpredictable spot selection, and ability to make even the crustiest terrain look smooth. After breaking out through Vans’ Propeller video and officially turning pro for Baker in 2016 under Andrew Reynolds, Rowan quickly established himself as one of the most influential skaters of his generation. His skating balances power, creativity, and style in a way that feels completely natural, whether he’s charging massive rails or casually flowing through awkward street terrain. His connection with brands like Baker, Vans, Supreme, and Thunder reflects that blend of raw skateboarding and timeless style.
The Thunder 148 sizing hits a sweet spot for modern skating, especially for riders running 8.25"–8.38" decks. The truck’s quick turning geometry and lower ride height help maintain strong boardfeel while still offering enough stability for bigger terrain and fast skating. Sold as a complete pair and ready to mount straight out of the box.
