    Blix - I am 170LBS maybe I went a little too soft, but on my
    Vanguard I use the Khiro orange bottoms and white tops, and that's
    with my Randal's really loose. Maybe I should have gone 85A
    or 90A, what duro do you use? (you prob have posted this before
    but I can't recall).

    I have the 90a standard pack in my Dervish, but I`m thinking of replacing at least the bottoms with 85a`s, as I also like it super loose. I`m 165. 81a might be a bit too much me thinks.

    I will have to report back once I get them, and I get a day
    out with no snow/ice on the roads, we are scheduled for
    snow the next few days (booooo!).

    Venoms suck in bears!
    but
    Rule in Randal's!
    (they just slide right out of the bushing seat on bears)
    Blue stickers are only given to the select few people to suck adam coltons balls, and do it skillfully enough to give him blue balls. Thus resulting in the giving of the rare Blue Loaded Sticker.

    Venoms were the best bushings I used in bears, they actually made it turn without getting bite on my Drop Speed.
    They never slide out on mine? Maybe it's only polished bears that slide, I have the black.

    That's crazy. 81a Venom Standards were too loose for my 125 pounds. Looking to get an 85a Downhill Pack so I can try 85a/81a barrels front and back.

    My 81a SuperCarves keep 'popping out' of their cupwasher, cutting themselves on the sharp edge of the washer. They're suicidal.
    I'm gonna try one of the larger barrelwashers and see if it fixes the problem. They're sitting on old-gen randals btw..

    i use an 81a standard pack as half of my bushings (the other half are the white gullwing bushings) on my chinook that is setup as a pusher/carver for now. they are very fun bushings that turn great but i haven't found anything very special about them but i should try them in my bennett (the truck i use to test bushings as it seems to do so very well)
    I <3 Pulse longboards!

    whining about someone whining is always worse than the original whiners whine.

    If you have used,.. lets say Khiro's for four years and then start using Venom's, you would notice more of a difference. If you were a slalom racer and again used Khiro's, you would see more of a difference.
