I have recently re-written the bushing spec guide. Can everyone please pick over it and tell me if you think I have made any errors. I am fairly sure this is the most comprehensive version of a bushing chart available on the net. I have included 32 bushing brands so far, if you Know of any bushings brands and duros I can add please post details.
Wondering about:
Grind Kings Black ??
Randal Blue ??
Randal Black ??
Pumpkin? (or is that listed as Landyachtz?)
Abec-11: do the duros match the colours of the Retro wheels (lime=80, lemon=83 etc.)?
Pumpkin is Landyachtz.
Randal blue/black are barrels only released with Comp II trucks.
Abec 11 are all the old urethane, all green with the same duros as the wheels were 75a, 78a, 81a, 84a, 88a, 92a
Reflex is retro duros same as wheels with the addition of red and black hard duros
Grind King only has 3 bushing duros on their website 90a, 95a, and 99a. However the packet says 91a, 95a, 99a.
Dont think he's in full production (yet) but custom "Richie Rubbers" (as in Old School Richie) are alot softer than the softest speced here.(somewhere betwwen 60 and 70 ??).an absolute must for kids, ladies, anyone in the 20kg to 50 kg weight range. Fin and Joel (9 years) wouldn't be smashing cones without them and girls and newbies find it much easier to get the hang of carving/slaloming on them. Someone should commission OSR to do a semi-commercial batch (Hop?)...they're a hot item in NACCOSville
Very nice list! Thanks. Nice contest too..who can come up with the most obscure bushes (that are still useful!).
I have some Tensor bushes. They have an inner neck which extends through the hanger to lock into the other bush. Barrels (end slightly tapered) Red colour, duro guess seems about 90a. Currently on the back of my slalom board.
