These bushings are great for everything. The amount of rebound they harness is useful not only for downhill, but for carving and pumping. They work best on reverse kingpin trucks (i'm running black bottoms on my Bears and black tops on my Bennets. These are arguably the best bushings you could buy (especially for DH) and just make sure you get some flat washers (especially for the top) and you'll be all set.

these bushings are great for downhill skating...they lock the hanger in place so there are virtually no wobbs, and they're really turny at low speeds too. again, the size is somewhat prohibitive on certain trucks...but that's what makes them absolutely shine on other trucks. i kinda wish they came with appropriate sized flat washers, cuz the built-in washer is FAR too small. for best results, i've found that you gotta run a flat washer that nearly matches the diameter of the bushing.

Great bushings, they may look soft on paper, but they are super stable because they are so huge.

super responsive bushings. these bushings allow you to run your trucks much losser, and still have way more rebound.
