Nipples Longboard Skateboard Truck Bushings (Set of 4)

Depending on which type of board you use them for, these are great bushings. I tried them on my boosted stealth board. And wow they are great for pumping and carving! However, hitting top speed on eboards will give you the wobbles. I tightened my trucks as much as I could but I still got the wobbles at high speeds. But it's not the bushings fault, like orangatang told me, they have "a high rebound (return to center)". Which is perfect for carving. But for my riding style where I hit top speed, they will give you wobbles. Unless you are more experienced and can handle the wobbles. For that reason I would only give them 4 stars. If you plan on just cruising, get them. These are better for analog boards, but are also great for eboards as long as you're going at lower speeds and just wanna carve. But they get 5 stars because I really love orangatang customer service. They respond quickly and you can tell they want you to have the best purchase possible. Thanks Orangatang 😁

I weigh 170lb and these are perfect. They arent too stiff or loose.

I used these in the rear of my DH/freeride set up paired with the soft and supple orangatang nipples in the front for more turn in the front vs the rear and honesty ima have to get back to you on how I like em because I'm still getting used to the new found home at speeds but don't let that fool you these are anything but dead I straight bounce out of some of the more aggressive turns in other words if you get used to the bounce it launches you into the next turn which I have no idea how it looks but it definitely feels epic

I'm around 190 lbs and only casually skate around as a surfing placebo or balance training alternative. I put a set of these on both my longboard and my Carver surfskate, and it made a tremendous difference! I was having some difficulty pumping the Carver intuitively. After I installed these, I get a lot more rebound and energy out of the board and pumping is much easier. Feels much more like surfing and I believe I'm getting a lot more value out of my time on it. Same for my longboard...it's a different animal but it feels much better than before.

Fit perfect in my Backfire G2. I weigh 210lbs and the purple bushings are perfect. Exactly what I needed to refresh a tired board.

These 86a's are nice, firm and stable, they allowing for comfy carving with good control, Orangatang parts are always awesome! I'm 187lbs and these feel much more stable than the orange 80a's I got last week, both are super nice and far better than the stock ones I had

I like these things! Although, I probably should have gotten the medium or hard bushings (recently weighed in at 180 lbs and I need a harder bushing for speed stability). When I put them both on my Cailber II RKP 50 degree trucks, oh, they carved so effortlessly, and they respond very swiftly - so swiftly, my weight usually throws me off of my board. While I like them, I've had to pair the roadside Orangatang Nipples with Caliber's stock, Medium stepped barrel boardside bushing in order to keep the responsiveness, but also have stability while going fast because of the weight scale:bushing softness ratio.

So I weigh about 160 pounds and needed loose bushings for my dancing setup on paris trucks. These worked amazingly well, especially paired with Riptide 96a Paris pivot cups. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone who wants to get loose and yet still be stable with quick, reliable response. If you're into dancing or carving or simply commuting on RKP trucks these bushings are perfect
