Root Do I need to flash a kernel?

i flashed skyraider and i'm still on the stock thunderbolt kernel i'm pretty sure :/ some may come with it but i don't believe skyraider did :/

You are both right and wrong. :D

You are on the newest HTC kernel on skyraider but it was included in the rom. When you wipe system you delete the kernel as well so the rom has to have kernel or it wouldn't boot for you. Most roms do not come with a stock HTC kernel.
