Riptide's Premium WFB Pivot Cups are a perfect upgrade to your trucks.

  • RipTide's Pivots are specifically designed for each truck.
  • Our Pivots offer a Lively & Responsive feel.
  • Hand-poured into Custom-made molds. The cup end is machined to fit into base plate accurately.
  • There are no machining imperfections and no heat-affected zone in the super smooth pivot contact area.
  • All RipTide's WFB Pivots come in our exclusive Internally Lubricated WFB Urethane in 96a durometer.

RipTide's Pivot Cups & Tubes are the result of years of testing and fit checking. We do not offer universal pivot styles because of the compromises a universal pivot force you to make.  In some cases, we offer both tubes & cups for the same truck.  Both will offer the smooth turning benefits of Riptide's exclusive internally lubricated WFB Urethane in 96a. Tube Pivots offer even lower friction due to the reduced surface contact with the nose of the hanger.

Pivot cups

So far great, first time using riptide products won’t have a good opinion till I ride a bit and see how they hold up. Unfortunately I don’t know how long it’ll be till I do that. Bought an electronic sk8 board in 2023 from a reputable company, unfortunately again the model board I bought had the electronics changed out that year and came with a beautiful color led display, you can monitor temps, voltages, and change settings right from the remote, nice right? No!! Just after I completed freshening it up for the season was setting the truck to suit me. Was on a ride feeling how I like the set up and stoping and making an adjustment here and there. Had it feeling good. On my first ride all new bushings, bearings, wheels, and my ESC started glitching. The battery jumper wire in the board went bad and fried my esc. So trying to get it fixed so I can tell you all how I like the riptide pivot cups. Thanks

Backfire Zealot with Riptide pivot cups

The most important piece of a good setup. Dramatically improves all trucks. Used them with Paris v3, independent and Paris street trucks for years. Thank you for making the best pivot cups.

Had trouble fitting the rear pivot into the baseplate at first, but I contacted support and they helped me out. Everything works now and the board doesn’t creak while turning anymore.

Anyone questioning whether pivot cups / bushings actually make a difference, don't. Save yourself the frustration and spend the 20-30 extra dollars.

Best customer service.

These are super slick pivot cups, tight fit and slippery. Way better than the original cups I had. RipTide's customer service is on point. Tracy worked with me and sent a replacement after my mail box was destroyed and everything stolen and they've even been helping me identify a solution for my other board that they don't specifically have, these guys are great.

Fantastic as always

great fitment, and makes a major improvement on the fluid feeling of the trucks. I also like that the lip sticks up higher than the original which helps prevent dirt from building up inside of the pivots!
