Id recommend FBS though. much better control than rip. rip is too grippy |

| Yeah, you sent me a piece <3! I haven't fully used riptape so I'm wear it out and see if I like it. I've used FBS allot in the past, time to try something new Also, I just put cocobutter lotion on my rip in a horrible attempt to make it wear in faster... Now it smells like cooconuts. |

| In My opinion 4c is great. It lasts me nearly a month. Takes me maybe two days to get it worn in though. On FFI I haven't really heard bad things about it. |

| they dont work well. BRTs have their own bushing system.
Also Tyler its what I do whenever i cut a new grip job. it softens the material and makes it more responsive |

| I disagree Kerry. Mine are the soft ones, and atwater a day and a little seagoing, they still work fine. They don't break within 20 minuets and I personally think are the best bushings, although very soft.
Do you like hard, medium, or soft trucks? |
