Riptide 70A APS Barrel Bushings (2Set)

APS Barrel Longboard Bushings are sold as a pair, including a sticker, but without washers. Bushing height: 1.52 cm - Bushing diameter: 2.49 cm. The APS connection is very lively and offers high rebound with plenty of control and lean. This formula does not change significantly when you tighten the kingpin nut beyond hand-tight (meaning you can no longer turn the bushing by hand). Note that the rounded edge faces the hanger of the skateboard truck and fits precisely into the bushing seat. APS Formula - Longboard Barrel - Don't hesitate to combine a softer durometer bushing on the road side (top) with a harder durometer on the board side (bottom). This can provide additional stability while still allowing for some carving. Very hard durometer bushings (97.5a) are generally for heavier riders or for those seeking a very tight setup. Hard durometer bushings (95a - 92.5a) are for average-weight riders and allow for a nice tight setup with very little wobble. Medium durometer bushings (90a - 85a) are for mid-weight riders and for those looking for a slightly looser setup than the hard bushings. Soft durometer bushings (80a - 75a) are for lightweight riders and those seeking a loose setup. Very soft durometer bushings (70a - 60a) are intended for very lightweight or young riders, but they are also suitable for those looking for a super loose setup (slalom).
