Krux
SKU: KX406
Description
Krux World's Best Cushions Soft 88A skateboard bushings loosen up your trucks for easier, smoother turning. These blue cushions compress with less effort than stock, giving you deeper carves and quicker lines without feeling mushy. If your Krux trucks feel stiff no matter how loose you run the kingpin nut, 88A is the fix.
At 88A, these sit just below stock hardness, so you get a noticeably looser truck while keeping enough support to stay in control. The ultra high rebound formula snaps your trucks back to center and means less break-in time, so they feel right from the first session.
Who Soft 88A Bushings Are For
- Lighter riders who have trouble compressing stock bushings
- Cruising and carving, where smooth, deep turns matter most
- Bowl, pool, and transition skating that calls for quick, tight lines
- Anyone who wants a looser feel without cranking the kingpin nut
Features
- Ultra high rebound urethane formula
- Standard cylinder shape
- Color-coded by hardness for easy identification
Benefits
- Less break-in time
- Looser, easier turning
- Quick return to center
- Tune your setup to your size, weight, and riding style

FAQ
Are soft bushings good for heavier riders?
Usually not. Heavier skaters tend to over-compress softer bushings, which can feel unstable. Medium Hard 92A or Super Hard 96A is the better match.
Can soft bushings cause wheel bite?
Looser trucks lean further, so wheel bite is more likely on setups with large wheels or low trucks. Riser pads fix this if it happens.
How much softer is 88A than stock Krux bushings?
Krux trucks ship with white Medium Hard 92A cushions. The blue 88A is a step looser, noticeable but not sloppy.
Will Krux bushings fit my trucks?
Yes, if you ride standard skateboard trucks. The standard cylinder shape fits Krux, Independent, Thunder, Venture, and most other standard trucks. They are not sized for longboard or reverse-kingpin trucks.
