    Default Hard bushing

    Recently I bought a pocketknife complete from Landyachtz. But I encounter a problem after riding it for a bit, it seems that the bushing are extremely hard. My other friends who have been longboarding for a while agrees, I am wondering does landyachtz boards usually come like this? Do I have to get new bushing or can I go to back to Landyachtz to get them exchange?

    Those are just the stock bushings. Just spend the $10 and buy a new set.

    Then what kind of bushing do you recommend, I was looking at venom standard bushing or carving series, do I need two of them? or can I just use the old bushing for the top part and use the two new cone bushing the bottom?

    Lower duros mean softer, higher mean harder.

    According to Landyachtz's website the Pocketknife also comes with Tracker Darts.

    Actually I got tracker dart trucks and those bushing were hard as ...... I tried loosening the kingpin, but the only suitable tightness is when the kingpin can be unscrewed with my hands. I think I will just get some new venom bushing for now.
