| This isn't quite a review, just some bummage I guess. " blackriver's bushings offer superior response and control. The material wears in nicely and gets better over time, and can be used for any preference of feeling wether it be loose, tight, or anywhere in between." (from the description of the white bushings.)
The bushings aren't responsive at all, and are no where near being loose. I guess the solution is buy more shit haha(soft bushings). I just think thats kind of lame for them to lie like that, obviously they've used them and know they are hard. whaaaaaaaaaatere. |

| my stock brt bushings are responsive, but ive tightened them all the way, wiggled them around, and loosened them multiple times to get them like that |

| If you use 2 top(smaller) bushings on each truck you get a really responsive feel especially if its 2 timo blue top bushing. Perfect feel. I have that on my brts and witchcrafts on my y trucks and shaped trucks.
If you want tighter brts you can use 2 big bushings on each truck. |

If you use washers they get a bit tighter. Use a nice big bottom washer and a good size top one. You can tighten them a bit that way, and they're still fairly responsive. Just don't go strangling them. |

| ^this way does not result in responsive trucks. Big washers make your trucks pivot less therefore less responsive. |

| ^this. Witchcrafts are fantastic, totally worth picking a set up. The adjustment time is not that bad, and the pay off is totally worth it. Tight trucks are no good, they don't cruise nicely which, for me, makes the whole experience less fun. I get that tricks are a little easier but at the expense of a realistic-feeling and responsive setup? No way. |

| I used to ride medium trucks but after getting Witchcrafts, you can just adapt to them.... or at least I could. I personally believe they're the best bushings around both in performance and appearance. |
