Riptide Pivot Cups Provide Better Stability

While you're cruising down roads at 30 to 40 miles per hour, you're hopefully feeling appreciative of the many components that are working together underneath your feet. It's this comprisal of components and a board in which the sport of street boarding can even be possible. Some of the key components of any board are the trucks, which provide the structural strength needed to handle curves and corners at very fast speeds. However, without the use of pivot cups, the stability of the truck and board diminishes greatly. 

As our Riptide pivot cups are made from some of the highest quality ingredients possible, we know you'll love the longevity to which they provide. Sold as a uniting pair, our Gunmetal Pivot Cups are made specifically to fit into Gunmetal trucks. They are built to be ridiculously responsive and made to provide a liveliness throughout the ride. As these are Riptide Pivot Cups, they are exclusively designed and internally lubricated with WFB Urethane in 96A. 

As there are no heat-affected zones in the area with the super smooth pivot, you'll realize that there are zero machining imperfections. That's what you'll get when you buy a pair of our Riptide pivot cups... zero imperfections! We know you'll feel great riding confidently above some of our Riptide pivot cups, as we get nothing but positive feedback about them!
