Fitz i want a radikal clear equavalent for slalom as i have one and its sick, i think they are 75a, i will have a dig for some softer wheels or if anyone has some to offer?

I could carve up some seismic hotspots again no prob. I'll try and get some Black Ops in 75A. Kinda hard to find at the moment, but I'll see what I can do.

If you mean Hourglass shape bushes then yeah I can hook you up. Let me know what duro, how many and I'll put you on the list.

I'm going to try and find time to carve up some 75A gumballs in Radikal shape bushes before this weekend.
Put in your orders now. I won't do any extra's unless I need to. They'll only be $5 each cause I won't need to buy em new. From my own personal stash.
So far I got Nath down for 2.

I'll take two of the 75A Gumballs.

I had a ride on Jacko's slalom deck with a blue Fastrack bushing cut down into an hourglass shape - felt sensational and I'm gonna try and make one myself.

Well, I just had a crack at making my own using a drill, a kingpin, and some sandpaper. Success! Not as slick as your pro efforts Fitz, but this bushing-shaping caper isn't too hard and seems ripe for creating soft slalom bushings out of bushings that would normally be a bit too hard.

the easiest way without pro tools like fitz is your method bugs, just to totally miss-use tools though i like to ocky strap the drill to a saw horse get her up and spinn'in then shape with the angle grinder, good fun and shit everywhere, you also get splattered with globs of molten urethane.

Spot on Bugs.
That's how I did the first couple before I started using the lathe.
Its a slower process but effective enough if you have time and patience.
The trick is sanding the urethane onto your regular bushes to make em into JimZ, Radikal, and Cracked shapes. :)

Only 97A Cracked Bushes left from this batch.

Sorry dude! You'll have to wait until jacko thrashes another set so I can buy em. Trouble is he knows how to repair his own now so there's not enough thane left on em for any bushes.
