ISHOD WAIR's Bushing HACK!!

[@henrydiaz7258]

I did this awhile back bc my trucks were loose enough to where my whole truck fell off 😳. Really helps. It’s also hilarious when people ask to ride your board & throw down, only to find how loose your trucks really are.

[@tulpa1940]

This is a pretty common longboard bushing setup. Venom sells double cones as "super carve". I haven't regular skateboarded for a really long time, but you could do a ton of custom stuff w/ bushings. Riptide sells street bushing packs. You could do double cone, softer in the front truck, or do harder board side w/ softer road side cones. Endless combos.

[@justiceizzy82]

Used to do this all the time back in the day. The in between is only take the bottom washer off, you don’t need it because the bottom bushing has enough surface area to sit on.

[@valentinl6640]

as someone that skates with very very loose trucks as Ishod I think I will definitely try this ! Thanks dude

[@omarvillalpando431]

I tried this today at work and it helped a lot the balance is so good , my manuals are on lock

[@ogbobbyjohnson492]

Yo if you bend your knees more when you skate you'll be 10x better no lie. Higher pop, better balance, board stays under you more easy. Seriously dude, try it out

[@johnwhyte4971]

Lol

[@jasonoson_]

fucking facts dude!! 110% agree with ya

[@souhailbachlouch4961]

Very true dude if you straighten and your back and shoulders when u do tricks it helps a lot

You mean bending knees more before a trick or during?

I have the same setup as Ishod, I like it.

[@ivangutierrez7019]

Adding beats behind the skating i like it. Reminds me of NKA vids

[@mattwrixon7026]

Ishod skates Thunders which are not a flowy truck so the bushing hack is just changing the geometry to make the trucks more flowy. If you want a more flowy and turny setup then try a new pair of trucks like Aces then you dont have to go tinkering with the geometry of a truck, would be good to go at stock. Lol yea its fun to experiment and tinker to get set ups more personalized but yaa know just sayin.

[@esoooanguleroo881]

Aces are the best trucks for flow

[@buhhwee2166]

He lowered the truck but kept the turning ability with the 2 cone bushings . I have 149 thunders and I put ace low bushing in as well as the krux inverted kingpin conversion.. been doing this for 5 years. The ace trucks are bottom barrel and the top is cone

[@drids.]

I loved this concept. More truck set up from pros

[@tomgann9383]

Dude, you’ve improved SO MUCH since the last time I watched one of your videos like a year ago. Good luck on the dieting. I can tell you from experience, when you’re a big boy skater like I was, losing a lot of weight is like a cheat code for skating. Obviously you get better pop, but I found that my style got WAY smoother. And I rolled away a lot more on landings that weren’t perfect. I think maybe your body gets used to being top-heavy, so when you lose weight your body still tries to compensate for that extra missing weight. It’s like your sense of balance is overpowered. That was my experience anyways.

[@the.skate.father]

I started doing this with a ML medium to and bones hardcore top, super lose and jiggly but I love it...

[@fritzgeraldlee2181]

Also check out Ishod Wair's trucks. He skates smaller trucks than his board. Example: Board size 8.25 with Thunder 147 Trucks. You can see it in his latest video part. Lots of pros like Andrew Reynolds & Leo Romero do the same. Big board riding smaller trucks. I also seen risers on his trucks...

[@victorarregnelle8976]

I hate the idea of riding magic carpet.

[@nickmatthews7882]

You should do the whole ishod setup: 8.38 twin tail with 147 thunders and 52mm wheels with 3 washers on the inside of each axle

[@localjoe]

I plan too I just don't want to start over with new trucks haha

[@jeancampaner5639]

Nice content and discovery! I bought some months ago new indies bushings. Can't remember how/why, they were like the ones in the vid, top bushings only. I admit I did not pay attention, but just liked it. It's been 3 months I have them and I really like this way, much better to me than classic bushings when it comes to feeling confortable on your board moreover when you like having a nice turning on the streets...Thanks for the vid!!

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

much love and respect to you and your channel. I hope that all is well for you and your family and friends.

[@Unlockingparadoxes]

thank you for what you do and everything you have done. I love your channel and videos.

[@dominickdaniels1995]

Tried this today with two top bones bushings(no washer). I haven’t had this much fun in a while and Manuel’s were a bit easier

[@nollieniklas]

I just thought about the concept of your videos. First of all, I enjoy them very much. I had this idea that you may not only change the setup of your skateboard for a video (in this case) but also change the style. For example if some skater does huge drops on a specific board setup, it would be nice to see if it helps YOU when hitting a (smaller) drop. Just an idea. Nice vid and make every day a Friday 🤙 Ps: sorry if my english is a little bit skuffed😅

[@Exploitedyouth2004]

The big issue with this is with that bottom bushing being shorter it changes the geometry of the truck. The truck is going to sit titled inwards towards the center of your board and will put more pressure on the pivot cup. Definitely not the best thing for the trucks even if it feels good.

[@randoslapps4627]

Is it that big a deal if Ishod throws down harder with it then a 12 year olds controller playing COD?

[@Exploitedyouth2004]

@Where's the curvature or cleavage? It's not just the pivot cup itself receiving extra pressure. It's the bottom of the hanger as well as the back of the baseplate and likely the kingpin as well. If it makes the trucks feel great for you or ishod or whoever, cool go ahead and do it. Just know it may lead to some earlier parts failures.

[@Cnb132]

Dawg hearing all that makes me wonder what you ride cause I know Jack shit abt what’s a good set up. I just threw some indies on my shit and never looked back still feels comfortable but I’m interested in finding a better set up

[@Exploitedyouth2004]

@@Cnb132 honestly man ignorance is bliss. Just ride what you feel comfortable on. I made the mistake of learning all the weird physics and nuances of board size, truck differences, wheel size and shape. All it did was make me obsessively try new stuff. I'm still a shitty skateboarder haha.

He got hella low risers too because the double top bushings makes the trucks lower and thunder 147s are 50mm tall stock

[@jouhajohnny]

49mm if they are lights or hollow lights

And in the next video you have to skate a whole ishod board :D he skates thunder 147 on a 8.3 or something:D and did you ever skated a twin tail board? Love your videos Much love from germany 🙏❤️

[@madmyers8356]

Dude you are no longer average..

[@localjoe]

I mean in my head I want to be like a ishod so I’m pretty far off from that but average is subjective

[@FirelordRob76]

eventually your board will be like a total melting of like 100 pro's life hacks. i think the two top bushings also makes the trucks lower and have a shorter wheel base. also if you're dieting buy lots of healthy groceries that take a bit of effort to eat. when i eat really bad it's because i have 5 bags of 3d doritos in my bedroom where i can just graze instead of eating real food.

[@james-br2gm]

What is it with pros and super loose tricks? Is it sort of like learning ping pong with spatula so when you use a real paddle it will feel like the size of texas? In the context of skateboarding I guess that would be your sense of balance?

[@kilegilmer1245]

Do I need to try this to understand? My trucks are loose enough with the normal bushings for my front to only turn the board when I'm pushing? Someone please elaborate

it's a little looser than what you normally could achieve with a standard truck setup

the setup is just called conical bushings instead of cylindrical bushings.

I don't know , ishod has a certain look on a board that is not copyable by most skaters. hes tall and slender first of all so he looks and skates completely different. what works for him i don't see working for most average skaters.

[@sluggysworld469]

found this cuz i use 2 bottom bushings but i saw some 90s japanese trucks by GUS and they had some really weird hourglass looking bushings on the bottom it looked like 2 top bushings facing against eachother so it was skinny in the middle so i want to try putting 2 top bushings on the bottom of my trucks to try and replicate it but i'm scared that they will break or something cuz im really heavy i'll update this comment after experimenting

[@TheHoodBillNye]

I’m in class 😂😂

Real one

[@RIPTurhaAKACryptidHunter]

What Ishod is actually saying is that he has conical bushing both top and bottom. But I think everyone got that 😂

[@ramennpapi]

I tried this and it’s awesome but I keep getting wheelbite

So you put a too bushing in the bottom and the top

[@yhnyves210896]

this works better if you use only top washers instead of this bottom washer

Gotta skate and 8.38 and 147’s

[@zd1640]

every time I buy new trucks I use the bushings from my old trucks if they're not to cracked

[@drewphifer4684]

This is just the opposite of Andy Anderson bushing setup. 2 bottom bushings so it isn't as loose

[@shellbournian]

seems like you'd break kingpins more often, no?

maybe... I think more the pivot cup would get worn down

[@lazyk1751]

Realistically how often are non pros breaking kingpins tho?

@@lazyk1751 depends what you skate... I go through kingpins about as often as I go through decks. and they're not only annoying to replace, but it's not "fun" to replace like a deck is, ya know?

It’s a placebo effect. You got used to it because if you do any kind of adjustment you will get used to it after a session. No diss but I don’t think you are good enough to really notice the actual benefits.

Make a video about the benefits since you’re good enough.

You need to be a bit more advanced to notice the difference a lot more, he mentioned control with one foot in tight places and better for landing tricks just more control in general

[@danielbohnaker952]

now try riding trucks as loose as Daewoo Song and get back to me.

[@skatelife2013]

No way in hell! I like a mid-tight setup being a heavier skater (185-190) I am not sacrificing my pop and stability even if it means slightly better pinch. Not to mention making thunders even lower and the wheel bite you'll get,haha.

[@victorarregnelle8976]

I'm 225lbs and can't ride conical bushings if my life depended on it. I also ride 8.5 though. I noticed the narrower the board the tighter the trucks feel. The less distance between the center of the board where the trucks turn, the less leverage, my guess. I can never get over how people ride their trucks so loose you can see the truck wabbling when they pick up their board.
