Longboard Buying Guide: Bushings for Cruising & Carving

Bushings for Cruising & Carving

You’ve chosen cruising/carving as the main style of riding you’ll be doing!

Cruising & Carving Bushings

standard bushing combo (barrel/cone) is the most common choice for this type of riding. Cruising and carving are on the casual end of the longboarding discipline spectrum, so our setup suggestions will assume you’re keepin’ it casual on mild hills or flat surfaces.

Note: If you would rather use a traditional kingpin truck (like an Independent) on your "cruiser setup" check out the Park Skating section!
