Randal R-II 180's HELP

**cb037** · 01-07-2009 08:38 PM

i was wondering how the stock bushings on the randal r2 180's are. i use my longboard mostly for carving/sliding. if someone could tell me the best bushing durometer for my style that would be great. I weight 135 lbs. also, would khiro barrel bushings fit on the randal's? i'd appreciate any advice i could get on all of this.

Thanks

The newer randal bushings are actually really good in my opinion. Good for an all around use.

And yeah Khiro barrels or venoms will both work if you decide you don't like them.

Get the new yellow Randal bushings. Should work out for ya.

I like the stock red bushings that come with the new Randals. Perfectly fine with my Dervish and I carve, cruise, and do some sliding.

I personally thought the yellow bushings were a little mushy. I weigh 125. They're not horrible, but not my favorite either.

Just to add more to your ability to sleep well at night, I think the stock Randal bushings have all been pretty good, and the new ones are especially good. I don't like the Khiro as much as the Randals. Good luck with the setup

I weight between 125 and 130 depending how much i eat and sh!t. 1 like my bushing's loose and am a khiro fan the red barrels would work well with you. I love the blue khiro barrels top and bottom so much. but if I need more stability blue tops with red bottoms are awesome.
