Hello all,
I wanted to see if I could get some help here. I'm looking for recommendations on what kind/size bushing would work best for me. I plan on riding bowls at my local SP. I'm 5'9" 200lb (looking to get back to 175). Since I'm old school I got me a Satan Cruz Street Creep with indi 169 and Powell Peralta White Rat Bones Wheels 60mm/90a. Seeing as I'm on the heavy side and I really hate the speed wobble. Is there a bushing that would work for my size?
Thanks Mike |

| I have always like the Indy aftermarket bushings, even more than bones bushings. I ride the medium conical lows but I like my trucks so loose they jiggle. I am sure hard Indy or hard Bones would treat you right. Khiro makes some good stuff too. Buy a couple different brands and experiment,that's half the fun... |

I just got my first set of Bones bushings, they seem really good.
As for variety, check out longboard bushings like Venom, Riptide, or Bear, they not only have a lot of different durometers, but different shapes as well. |
