If they are really Tracker Stims, expecially the soft yellows, then buy them all. Your skateshop can say whatever they want, but enough of us have talked to Tracker about it to know what the story is.
Buy all they have and horde then like everyone else... BTW, if they are blue, that is the price most retailers are selling them for (~10 USD). If they are green or yellow, good find - you can double your money.
They are good bushings and at that price, you can't pass that up. Careful though, Stims come in packs of 2, if they are 4 packs, they could be something else.
Odd. With those would most the resistance be at the far end of the spectrum? im not sure if i made sense, but what it mean it seems like it is a fairly high rebound but the reisistance cranks up more quickly than a standard barrel? Eh, i guess the urethane is also in question as well though.
Yeah, that "keg" design will have an increased "rising spring rate" as it's compressed. I bet they'll work a lot like a Stimulator, and I'm pretty impressed that they came up with that shape: it's expensive to make them that way.
Who's gonna get their hands on these things, soon?

if someone wil take time and slowly introduce them to me in steps i may be able to like them. At least they arent that horrible green color with horse shoes on them
Kegs are Tracker hourglass in reverse! Look like a better thought out Stim shape. Who knows if a keg will have the "majic" of a stim but they might be really on the right track. Rising rate bushing pressure would be a good thing but I'm guessing all barrel shaped bushings already provide rising rate pressure. The question is: does a keg shape do it better or does an hourglass shape do it better or is it down to the properties of the particular urethane mix itself that really matters?(somebody go ask Chris Chaput). Or wait for Mark to buy a gross and test 'em :P
the lucky bushing i was forced to buy in a pinch are lifeless without a lick of rebound. VERY similar to stock randals, so my best guess if they are a diff formula may have to conquer my fear but if its the same im crawling back in my hole
