KranK Bushings 0.5" - Street

This + 2 of the big washers and the .4 street cone also in krank is working awesome on my af1 setup. 2 washers + the .5 got within .03 of stock bottom + cup washer. 1 washer was a little short. I went with 96 duro and works well for me, weighing 220-ish right now.

Made my board more manageable. My meepo voyager has weird trucks and these were slightly smaller so I have To use small washers mix and match and I’m still trying to figure out the right ratio. One of my bushings broke but kinda my fault from tightening ig.

I put the riptide soft bushings in all my Indy trucks. I’ve tried every brand of bushings, but the riptides are the best!! They immediately feel like broken in bushings & last long. I skate my trucks super loose & they are the best for that!! I also use their pivot cups in all my trucks too!! And, the people that run Riptide are super nice & informative!!!!

Would buy again! Work great and will get stiffer set next time to try out and have some verity.

Replaced the stock cone and barrels with the 96a and 94a krank barrels. Board is significantly better than before.

Brad and Tracey know their stuff! This will surprise no one who has connected with RipTide, of course.

I needed to adjust my freeriding setups and wasn't sure how to get the ride I needed. I was looking for more rebound and responsiveness from the front trucks and more stability in the rear. I also wanted to keep the carviness that comes with my boards (Zenit Marble and Pantheon Gaia) without losing the ability to hit higher speeds under control.

Brad set me up with KranK Street Barrels and Canons on the front, and Magnums in the rear (all 87a). It changed the whole ride, for the better! More rebound and flex, which simply made the ride more fun for me. The carvy ride actually improved, to the point where I threw a small riser in front because of how much more turn I got.

I've tried these are two sizes of Paris V3 RKPs. They're now the default bushings setup in any ride that I'm taking on a hill. Brad was right on point, per usual!

Switching to 87a Krank street bushings and 96a pivot cups was like spreading sweet delicious buttercream all over my Polar Bear trucks. The action is smooth, responsive, quiet, and carves like a sexy dream. I love how easy it is to fine tune the setup using the kingpin nut. I'm Hooked on Krank and won't skate any other bushing. Let it Rip!

Setup:
Board: Landyachtz Dinghy Blunt
Front: Polar Bear 105mm, Krank 87a short cone (roadside), Krank 87a fatcone (boardside)
Rear: Polar Bear 130mm, Krank 87a short cone (roadside), Krank 87a chubby (boardside)
Wheels: Fatty Hawgz 63mmm, 87a

Ordered a set of Street Barrel and Short Cones for my Pantheon Ember and they've been awesome. Super responsive and carvy! Going Riptide for all my bushings from here on out. Oh and my order came with a lovely handwritten note, top notch service!

Tracey helped me to make the best choice for my Sidewinders. Pumping and surfing much better now!

Absolutely love everything I have purchased recently from RipTide, haven't used everything yet but I will. The self lubricating wfb 96a pivet cups are perfect for the Tracker Classic gnarly large pivet cup plates and my early Independent stages love them as well. I can't say enough good things about the array of bushings I have used to this point as well. The Krank bushing durometer keeps my trucks solid and balanced while being able turn easily. I collect, repair and sell early 70s and 80s skateboards. Not all my collectable skateboards get RipTide bushings, but when they do the ride quality improves dramatically over the old original rubber bushings. Thank you Tracy and Brad for making outstanding products for skateboarding here in Oregon. I support you guys and your business completely. Stay easy and enjoy the ride at RipTide. Rob.

Big improvement over stock for my 27" Penny Australia Nickel Board, Oregon based company so I am buying local, high quality product, great customer service, shout out to Jeremy. Thanks RipTide crew. Cheaper than Penny brand with shipping for a higher quality product!

You can tell by the feel of these out of the package that they are different. The formula is very slick feeling. I've used RipTide Penny pivot cups and they are excellent. Make sure to order the matching barrel bushings if needed and order everything together to save on shipping. I made the mistake of ordering items separately and shipping costs add up fast.

Great bushings, stop me from getting wheelbite and have great rebound

Chubs are the best way to have more stability without sacrificing turn. Get you some!

I've never skated Indys that felt better than the way mine do, now

Great

Their bushings and pivot cups are the best out there, and their customer support is even better. Any time I've ever had to contact them, Tracey responds quickly.

They also accommodate my requests for split duro orders, etc as a matter of course, never feel like I'm putting them out.

I'm 200 over lbs and these bushings are great for me to get max turn and very little wheelbite
