Review on Enhance Performance with Shorty's Black Doh-Doh Bushings 100a Rock Hard for Skateboards & Longboards by Christopher Kumar

So. I'm a big guy (200lbs) and thought these bushings would be a good replacement for the overly soft stock Independent Orange. But literally a lap around the block and the bushings looked like this. I don't know if they're old or fake, but they look and, more importantly, feel absolutely shabby. My trucks also had excessive play, like they were permanently buckled or deformed. The bearing cones were sheared with washers and I overtightened them because I had a wheel bite and weighed too much. However, they quickly became terrible. I don't even know what to do? Not sure I can return them in this condition but this is truly one of the most disappointing products I have ever ordered from Revain. I also have some Bones Hardcore (96A) jacks, they work better you see. better and endure insults better than they. To be honest, I wonder if they really are made of hardened doh-doh. I almost feel bad because I'm sure someone put (some) effort into designing, prototyping, testing and mass producing them. But these just suck. I don't usually leave bad reviews either. I'm just living my life and guess I'm unlucky. But I really can't imagine how that can happen after just one ride. I can't recommend them to anyone for any reason. *Disclaimer* This product was purchased with my own money and no one has attempted to influence its contents.
