- Lighter riders who want an easy, responsive turn
- Bowl, pool, and transition skaters

Which Indy Bushing Style Is Right for You?
Standard Conical
A cone shape uses less urethane than a cylinder, so your truck starts leaning with less effort. Choose conical for a quicker, more responsive turn.
Standard Cylinder
A cylinder shape uses more urethane, giving your trucks more support and a steadier, more predictable feel. It also comes in the widest hardness range, from 78A Super Soft to 96A Super Hard.
Original Cushions
Larger cushions built for Independent Stage 1 through 7 trucks, including the current Stage 4 reissue. Custom formulated for superior stability, with cup washers included.
