You've seen him in the forums, dreaming of home-built wheels and bushings, hole-sawing crates of wheels, then revealing his wheel molds, home-built, Black Mamba wheels and now...bushings.  Check out what Zak Maytum has for Silverfish: 

 

 

VENOM Bushings

The Next Wave in Performance

    If you check the forums regularly, you have probably seen some of my urethane creations.  The only difference this time, is now they can be yours!
They Go on sale at Midnight on Saturday, Jan 12.  For those of you that don’t know, these beauties are being poured by hand in the workshop of yours truly (Zak “T.V.A.R.” Maytum).  I have been working long chemical filled hours for weeks now to come up with the formula and shapes that are going into production.  They feature an unheard of, incredibly high rebound urethane that gives them ride that you must feel to believe!

 

   They are currently available in Orange (85a) and Blue (78a).  Though there will be a 93a Version available soon.  The colors are fully fluorescent and glow brilliantly in natural light.  Especialy at dusk!  Currently under the feet of many top racers including K-Rimes, Dubester, Martin Reaves, and Joe Mclaren, these babies will be a new benchmark in the performance world.  Every bushing is molded with a dish in the top to accommodate spherical bearing precision trucks.  More info on the next page...

 

   
The Venoms come in 4 awesome shapes:

1: Fatty

This Big, Fat, hunk of ‘thane is most comparable in size to a Radikal bushing and a monster on any sled.

2: Step

Similar size to the Fatty, but with a sexy step molded in to accommodate almost every bushing seat.  Ideal for Randals, Bears, Crails, Holeys, Indys, Trackers, You name it.  

3: Skinny

The Skinny is a twist on an old standard.  It takes your normal khiro-sized barrel shaped bushing, and turns it into a little piece of carving perfection.  Perfect for any truck and board especially the popular kahalanis!

4: The Stimulation Station

   I share a love with many others for this shape.  It just seems to be magic.  So, I put the spherical bearing dish in it, and poured it in what could be the first formula that could rival the feel of the original.

 

 

Finally, I turn my sights towards innovation with my “Dual Duro” bushings.  Soft on the top, hard on the bottom.  This creates a quick turn in the middle, and a hard pumping drive and great stability when laid over:

 

Half n’ Half

These can be poured in any of the standard shapes.  They are not quite ready for production, but soon.  Very soon.

    Note: These are hand-poured by one person, in a home workshop.  I’m not a machine, so there may be small cosmetic flaws.  There will most likely be a couple little tiny bubbles on the surface of your bushings, but I won’t sell anything that will affect the performance.  Vividness of color may vary slightly as well.  All in all though, I have an extremely high success rate, and I am confident that you will be very happy with these bushings.  I know they're expensive.  Believe me, there are legitimate reasons for this: the materials and cost to make the molds are expensive and I'm just starting out.  Excellent costs and these are excellent!
