ISHOD WAIR's Bushing HACK!!

Ishod Wair's bushing hack is he puts two top bushings on his trucks. Ishod Wair does this bushing hack to help his trucks be as loose as possible without automatically getting wheel bite. I tried ishod wair's bushing hack for one session and I respect Ishod Wair more for his bushing hack because it is so hard to control the board when it's so loose. But After trying ishod wair's bushings for a session I've kind of gotten used to them and I'm gonna keep trying Ishod wair's bushing hack for a few more sessions.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

[tomgann]

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.

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

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

[skmafia]

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

[buhhwee]

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

[nickmatthews]

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

I loved this concept. More truck set up from pros

[fritzgeraldlee]

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...

[matanaltjeacovson]

Wow you're getting really good man, great to see your progression!
Btw how about a tyshawn jones or nick tucker video(probably something about switch flips or popping higher)?

[Exploitedyouth]

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.

Love your content man, I was watching a few of your old videos, and then skipped to this one. Your progress is phenomenal!! Love the videos man keep the good vibes rolling

[dominickdaniels]

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

[RideBonesSwiss]

you should try his truck size to deck size difference. 147s and 8.3!
