What every rider NEEDS to know about electric skateboard bushings !!

[@eboardr]

Switched the stock bushings on my zeus to riptide, can't believe I didn't do earlier.

[@TimWoodVlog]

Good to see you going it alone, really looking forward to what you bring to the scene from now on 👍

[@rickyeverett]

Cheers tim much appreciated 👍🏼

[@mitsuracer87]

I think the WFB is real nice actually. After trying lots of Krankz, I tried some WFB and was able to control the board better. I wouldn't go with APS since they try to fight you, you can't control it is much. If you feel like you need stability just use a fatcone or chubby bushing instead of a barrel or cone

[@ASeSkater]

Yes mate!! Excited for this new chapter for you! Always loved your edits and videos can't wait for more fire content 🔥 Learnt a few bits about bushings in this vid 🙌

[@rickyeverett]

Cheers bro much appreciated 👌🏼 there’s plenty more to come just easing myself into it again 😂

[@MichaelHurdleStudio]

Great information. I really didn't know too much about bushings. Now I do. Thank you.

[@tonymuthafuckingunn]

Good info Rick! Thanks for the information!!!

[@rickyeverett]

No problem thanks 👍🏼

[@SinCityEsk8]

Great info!! Riptides are the way for sure, besides wheels these are the best way to really personalize your setup to suit your riding style. Glad to see u back on tube doin eSk8 stuff 🎉

[@rickyeverett]

Cheers dude much appreciated 👍🏼

[@chase5145]

I run 97 duro aps barrels front and rear but I put a 95 duro wfb cone up front on top of a barrel and it actually has really nice turn initiation and still stable. Zeus pro.

[@rickyeverett]

Nice sounds awesome 👏🏼

[@Michaelajacksonfilms]

Thank you

[@veymaxboard]

Thank you, that's really helpful! I am looking forward to collaborate with you someday!

[@rickyeverett]

I hope so too!

[@certifiedalchemist]

I have tried the APS and WFB formula and I actually like WFB the most. I find that APS fights me too much in longer turns. WFB gives way better control and let's me ride how I want to. I run fatcone board side and barrel road side.

[@AndrewD50297045]

Great video. I just got my first e-skate and I got speed wobble almost immediately. I'm a tall an heavy dude and my girlfriend is 100lbs lighter than me. I felt like I really had to crank down on the nut and even then I have to be really careful. For reference we got the WoWgo 2S Max

[@africans1968]

Awesome video! Like you said once, I will like to see a video of programing VESC for beginners.

[@rickyeverett]

No problem dude it’s coming 👍🏼

[@cadebromley]

Hey man, great video, super helpful. So can you confirm your setup as it seems like you mixed barrel and cones on the board/road sides instead of having all barrels on the board side and all cones on the road side

[@MarkHybridZ]

Hey man. Really enjoyed this video! Deep dive into bushings is something else. I hope riptide hear you out as feedback to us would be brilliant on different combos ect. 🤙🏽👊🏽

[@rickyeverett]

Cheers dude much appreciated 👍🏼 thought you was on the mountain boards now tho 😁 yes would be fun to test out all the different combos that have to choose from 👌🏼

[@MarkHybridZ]

@@rickyeverett Noworries bro. Aha yes I am. But I always love watching other peoples eskate videos man :). Plus I use riptide bushings on my apex airs dude. :)

[@rickyeverett]

@@MarkHybridZ Arh sweet dude 👍🏼 fair enough thanks for watching much appreciated dude 🤙🏼

[@benaddy1330]

Those tires look amazing. Where could I find a pair?

[@KillRoy0351]

Can you do a video where you test your bushing formula but make yourself weigh 100 kilos? (Heavy backpack/weighted vest) Maybe another video where you show what would be a good formula for someone who weighs 100 kilos?

[@MarkKurema]

Great video. How do they compare to evolve bushings? I'm 95kg and feel I could have more stability.

[@esk8unity]

i say it dozens of times, between bushings and wheel setups, its soooo much fun being able to mess with different setups and find out what u love as a rider.. btw; the meepo rims wit the evolve wheels are FIRE!

[@rickyeverett]

Yes mate totally agree and it’s such an overlooked thing on boards that make the biggest difference it can make a board that feels like shit feel amazing 🤩 just by messing around with the bushing 👌🏼 cheers dude they do look pretty fit 😍

[@Vladi_Pisarski]

Hi it's really nice review, but I am bit confused which set up for Traditional Kingpin trucks is best. I am 85kg rider and I was thinking to get Boardside - APS barrel 95a and Roadside - Krank Cone 90..

[@wolfanimations3423]

Hi! I was intrested if you still have the footage fom builing the beat cause I dont know how to wire it up correctly cause its a 4wd! and nice video love your content. and when I saw you havent been on avararage eskate I looked around to find your channel! I will love to see more content!

[@rickyeverett]

Hey cheers I’m making a full video on the board including wiring up ect it’s coming 👍🏼

[@wolfanimations3423]

@@rickyeverett yay cant wait

[@Yawnymcsnore]

Are you going to do videos on making your own board or better yet make your own DIY website!!???

[@rickyeverett]

Yes dude will be doing productions boards and also diy boards more diy than production boards tho 👍🏼

[@alexanderphilips1101]

Those wheels are beautiful 🤣

[@rickyeverett]

Thankyou 🙏🏼

[@sebastian21zuky21]

Thank you for info! What riptide bushing would you suggest to me for Meepo Hurricane (100kg) I ride fast as much as I can. Thank you Ricky!

[@rickyeverett]

Take a look on ripetides website they sell a kit but they even say on there that the hurricane trucks are abit twitchy and recommend going for a harder compound 👍🏼

[@derickpetit-blanc9165]

Sooo will you be finishing the 4wd diy board on this channel?

[@rickyeverett]

Yes will be finishing it off on this channel 👍🏼

[@SubaStar24]

How are these compare to the orangoutangs?

[@rickyeverett]

I'm not sure but all I can say is that riptide are really awesome bushings

[@bogdanchaban]

Jason Batemans son?

[@SubaStar24]

This is my first time seeing someone ride backwards? Is that a thing?

[@SubaStar24]

Or is that how tha board is designed?

[@rickyeverett]

My board is 4wd so I'm riding forwards but obviously have 4 motors 🤣

[@dogroach]

venom is better no question. sorry guys

[@averageeskatereviews]

Sick video brother. Especially love the title. Now just get yourself a hadean and stop riding those shitty DIY boards 🙄. You can’t even take it to a store if it breaks !? What’s the warranty like !? 😅

[@rickyeverett]

Cheers my g 👌🏼 thought of it all by myself 😂 I’ll start riding a hadean when it goes faster than I can run, unlike some people I actually know how to fix things myself 😂 luckily it never goes wrong I’m sure you can’t say that about your board now can you (my name Jeff)

[@tonymuthafuckingunn]

The DRAMA!!!
