Independent Original Cylinder Bushings in medium blue at 92a durometer deliver a balanced blend of stability and responsive turning for skateboarders who want controlled performance without feeling overly stiff. Crafted from Independent’s custom-formulated ultra-high rebound Genuine Parts urethane, these cushions provide excellent energy return and require minimal break-in time so you can set up and ride immediately. The 92a hardness offers tighter handling than softer options while still allowing smooth, predictable carves, making them ideal for street, park, and all-around skating. Properly sized for Independent Stages 1 through 7 trucks (including Stage 4 reissues), each pack includes two top bushings, two bottom bushings, and cup washers—enough to equip two complete trucks. The vibrant blue finish adds style while the durable high-rebound material maintains consistent feel under pressure. These Original Cylinder bushings give heavier and mid-weight riders a locked-in yet versatile setup that reduces wheelbite and improves grind control.
Balanced Medium-Hard Control
The medium 92a durometer combined with Independent’s ultra-high rebound formula gives these Original Cylinder Bushings a responsive yet supportive feel that snaps back to center quickly after every turn or landing. This custom urethane shortens break-in and keeps the performance consistent from the first session, delivering precise steering input without excess play. The larger Original sizing provides the proper fit and stability for Stage 1–7 trucks, resisting compression better than standard bushings while still permitting controlled lean when you need it. Riders around 70–90 kg especially benefit from the reduced wheelbite, improved grind confidence, and steady high-speed manners. Whether you’re linking lines in the park or locking in technical street tricks, the blue 92a cushions maintain their shape and rebound under load for reliable, predictable performance. The included cup washers further enhance adjustability so you can fine-tune your trucks to the exact tightness you prefer.
