Cast Polyurethane Freestyle Skateboard Bushings
Freestyle skateboarding requires very exact equipment and the choices for truck setup can be particularly exacting. The current favourite off-the-shelf setup is to use Khiro Purple barrel bushings with a conical top and a suitably wide hanger-side washer to prevent "splurge". This setup can be expensive and not so easy to obtain. As part of my ongoing investigations into DIY skateboard equipment and equipment modifications I have developed a prototype truck bushing of the classic Tracker Stimulator shape (design available more recently as Venom Eliminators).
