Overview

The Nipples double barrel bushings from Orangatang are designed to provide a lively and energetic ride, Nipples will revitalize any setup for carving, pumping, dancing, freestyle and freeride.

These bushings are compatible with all longboard trucks available on our site

2 Truck Set

Features enough bushings for both your trucks

Dimensions (in)

Outer diameter: 1.0
Height (top/roadside): 0.56
Height (bottom/boardside): 0.66

Urethane Formula

Nipples are poured in their extremely high rebound Randy Urethane formula. They stumbled on this urethane a few years ago while testing ultra high rebound formulas for wheels, but Orangatang found this urethane to actually be too high rebound for a wheel urethane. Perfect for a bushing.

Recommened Weight

Soft (orange): 80-180 lbs [35-85 kg]
Medium (purple): 160-230 lbs [70-105 kg]
Hard (yellow): 200-270 lbs [90-125 kg]

Compatibility

Compatible With: Paris, Tracker Fastrack, Gullwing Charger II, and old (pre-2010) Bear trucks.
Mostly Compatible With: Nipples work with Randal trucks, but they do not sit completely contained in the bushing seat. Because the Randal bushing seat is so low, however, it does not interfere with the performance of the bushings. They fit Caliber trucks, but the lean becomes very restricted past a certain point.
Not Compatible With: New Bears, Gullwing Chargers, or Indys.
Many Orangatang ambassadors have also run Nipples in various precision trucks (e.g. Aera and Omen) with good results.
Nipples will fit in any truck that can accommodate a 1-inch diameter bushing with a height of 0.66 (bottom) and 0.56 (top) inch.

Fit concern

Orangatang Nipples Double Barrel Skate Bushings (2 Truck Set) - purple (medium)

These guys seem a bit big to fit in my Bear trucks. May just force them in place and hope they settle. Not worth returning so let’s make them work. Give them a 3 for now, will check back after some hours.

Fantastic bushings

Orangatang Nipples Double Barrel Skate Bushings (2 Truck Set) - orange (soft)

Bought these for my daughters longboard, was looking for something softer for her lighter weight. These fit the bill perfectly and were not only softer but very responsive and adjustable.

Nips are the bomb

Orangatang Nipples Double Barrel Skate Bushings (2 Truck Set) - purple (medium)

A little softer than you would think for mediums but I love these. I'm 225lb and carve deeply with them.
