Independent Standard Cylinder Bushings in medium orange at 90a durometer deliver a versatile balance of responsiveness and stability for skateboarders who want smooth, controlled performance across street and park setups. Crafted from Independent’s 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 90a hardness offers a middle-ground feel that supports precise turns while still allowing enough give for controlled carving, making them a solid choice for all-around skating. Properly sized to fit Independent trucks as well as most other brands including Venture and Thunder, each pack includes two top bushings, two bottom bushings, and cup washers—enough to equip two complete trucks. The vibrant orange finish adds a bold look while the durable high-rebound material maintains consistent feel under pressure. These Standard Cylinder bushings give riders a reliable, predictable setup that reduces excess play and improves overall truck response.
Versatile Medium Response
The medium 90a durometer combined with Independent’s ultra-high rebound formula gives these Standard 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 smooth steering input without feeling overly loose or stiff. The cylinder shape uses more urethane for added support and a steadier, more predictable ride compared to conical options, while still permitting controlled lean when you need it. Riders of varying weights benefit from the balanced handling, reduced wheelbite potential, and improved grind confidence on both street obstacles and park transitions. Whether you’re linking lines or locking in technical tricks, the orange 90a cushions maintain their shape and rebound under load for reliable performance. The included cup washers further enhance adjustability so you can fine-tune your trucks to the exact tightness you prefer.
