Why skaters like it

Linked in threads about loose trucks, no-bushing setups and Daewon's unusual gear, as proof that a truck with no bushings can be skated.

“Everybody (myself included) who tried to skate it for first time could barely roll down a hill, but after a while you get used to it so much that going to anything stiffer feels weird.”
