Bones Hardcore Bushings - Soft (4 Pack)

When you turn a normal truck, the hanger web puts pressure on one side of each bushing (top and bottom). This squeezes that side and pushes the other side of each bushing away from the kingpin. We call this a single action bushing because only one side of the bushing works for you at a time.

 

The HardCore insert in the center of BONES bushings connects the two sides of each bushing together by bonding them to the HardCore insert. When the hanger web squeezes one side of a HardCore bushing, that side of the bushing reacts just like a normal bushing, but the chemical bond between the HardCore and the cushion keep the bushing from being squeezed out the other side. It actually increases the resistance to turning because it is held in place by the HardCore insert. This means basically that BOTH sides of the BONES HardCore Bushing are resisting your turning force. That’s why we call BONES Bushings the first double action truck bushings.

Bones Hard: Bushings provide high resistance to turning throughout the entire turning range and ultra quick response.

Bones Medium: Bushings Formulated for the majority of skaters who already have good control of their board and just want quick, positive response, centering and the control to skate anything or anywhere.

Bones Soft: Bushings provide very easy turning, quick, smooth response and good centering. We recommend them for skaters who like their trucks loose, but not floppy, longboarders, and little skaters for whom a soft HardCore will feel like a medium or firm bushing.
