Riptide APS Street Bushings
Best responsive skateboard bushings for riders seeking customized carving and control.
These bushings instantly transform stiff, stock trucks into responsive carving machines with a lively, predictable rebound. While the wide range of durometers requires some initial experimentation to dial in your perfect feel, the result is a significantly more agile ride that makes standard setups feel sluggish by comparison.
