There doesn't appear to be an official Venture replacement bushing set available. What other brands would be close to what comes stock on Ventures?
dlx supercush, ace lows, bones, indy cylinders all work
thanks.
I think the ace lows only work as the top bushing, for the bottom you might need ace normals
Good catch TZ! You still running those 8.25-8.3 quasi’s?
I'm skating the 8.25 I got right now. 14.37 wb just under 32 length. Shape is pretty good, took me a few sessions to get used to how flat it was, especially because I was coming from a super steep DOA shape. At first it felt like the board was a month old lol.
Flat shape is feeling pretty good now, I definitely prefer flatter kicks over steep ones especially on Ventures for what I skate. I quite like the shape of the kicks too, not stupid square but still a nice full shape with a well defined zone to flick off of. If anything, perhaps a slightly steeper tail would be nice but not necessary.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be that durable, seems to chip/dent/pressure crack a bit easier than generator boards... only been about 2 weeks and its still great for now, but the early symptoms aren't so promising. I definitely think generator wood is more reliable, whereas PS is a bit more hit or miss.
