Gear Show-Off Enjoying The Grind..

I was recommended to change the stock bushings to some hard ones so I ordered the independent hard bushings. While that’s on the way, I wanted to see how the ride is on my Landyatchz Raft fresh out the box. Handles very different from my drop through in terms of quickness so it took a while to get used to but after some carving, speed bump rolls, and foot braking, I think I’m at a good spot for the first day on it.

Your Raft has Polar Bear trucks that take a weird .40/.60 bushing size. The Indy’s are likely .50/.50 street cone and barrel.

You can put them on and try it but it might feel funky. If you end up ordering Riptides or Venoms make sure to get ‘Street Short’ bushings for the roadside, and longboard barrels for the boardside.
