| So yesterday I picked up a Tech Deck Penny at Walmart, I was really expecting anything good but it was only like 2.50. Anyways after riding it around for a little bit I noticed the bushings were a different construction than regular TD bushings or the Bollie ones I'm riding right now. The Penny bushings are coned and really soft. So I set them up in my regular board and I was super suprised! They exceeded my expectations by far, they were really soft, but didn't squish out of my trucks like the ones I was previously riding. So if you're looking for a pair of soft bushings for a cheap price, I'd check these out! |

| Yeah, Tech Deck are gradually improving there products by making foam tape, better quality boards (still not perfect, but they're getting better) the ramps are getting better (bigger and wooden), who knows what the tech deck brand will be like in a couple years time |

| The penny bushings are rad.
They kind of spring back too. |
