Good Bushings for Odd Sizing
Fit my Polar Bear Trucks and Ace Classics well. Quality as usual. I'm not sure a better bushing exists than what Riptide offers.

Everything came as expected. Nothing
Everything came as expected. Nothing to get picky about. Great bushings. Good packaging. and a hand written note with each order just to make the experience a little more personal.

A good fit for my skates
I got the "KranK 90a (Green) - Very Hard" cushions for my Falcon Pilot plates and am very happy with how they respond now. I'm a bigger guy so I need stiffer cushions. I had compatible MOTA blue hard cushions in my Pilots before these, and these are definitely harder than those were.

Much improved from stock
I'm a complete skateboard novice, but using the chart to find the right bushing size was incredibly easy. I purchased up a used mini cruiser to learn on, and after switching to Riptide APS bushings, the difference in ride quality was incredible. Thanks for making the process so idiot-friendly!

Cleaned my bearings and applied
Cleaned my bearings and applied the lubricant—works really well. Quality is great, and the customer service from Riptide was excellent. Appreciate the support. Thanks!

Riptide to the rescue
My first venture into channel trucks at 56 years old had me feeling a little defeated until riptide saved the day . With a little help an old dog can learn some new tricks .

Refreshed Nickel Board
Picked up new bushings and pivots for my nickel board after they started to crack and a set for my penny preemptively while I was at it. Chance to experience some durometers (they’re only coincidentally color matching).

New bushings for a newbie board builder
I found the website to be very informative when explaining the differences between the various formulas, shapes and durometers of bushings and pivot cups on offer. Purchased an array of bushings to experiment with my setups. My first impressions are that these bushings really do offer a sizable upgrade to the feel and performance of my ride as compared to stock. Ordering was easy, shipping was prompt, I will definitely be back.

Pure magic!
Normally I'm not really bothered to write a review but what kind of voodoo does riptide use when pouring these? They deserve every star they can get! If you have a Nomad N3, I honestly don't think these are optional but a necessity. These bushings blew my mind, just insane how nimble the N3 can be while still being stable at high speed. I ordered a few in different hardness and the pivot cups to be able to dial it in perfectly and really glad I did.

Excellent as always, riptide bushings are the best upgrade for the dollar you can make on a board.

A WORTHY Accessory! FOR MODS & LAND SAILING TOO!
I was running 1 3/4" angled risers with 3 inch hardware !! on a Landyachtz Switchblade drop through on 110 mm Torque Board street wheels. I failed to make a sharp fast corner and curbed the front truck HARD!! The bolts were bent to "spaghetti" but THIS plate kept them from being ripped out of the deck AND PREVENTED the deck and truck holes from being damaged at all! ( I DON'T HAVE PICTURES OF THE accident - BUT FOR REFERENCE HERE'S THE BOARD WITH ABOUT THE SAME 1 3/4" angled RISERS with 3" hardware of course DIFFERENT wheels pictured. ) BTW These brackets help make a nice hole to HOLD a SAIL MAST if your into "Land Sailing" !!! Quite helpful for that too!!

Performance Paradigm Shifting!
I’m on my 5th set of Riptide bushings for my Carver CX & C5 trucks. These supreme quality components make the performance truly come alive. They’re amazing, the manufacturing company is pure gold for having developed so many bushing systems. I tell everyone about them on the surf skate community pages.
