2021 model with updated plug bushing. The new Venom Plug Barrel Bushings for Caliber Trucks are designed to remove lateral play from the truck by filling the gaps between the hanger and the kingpin. This results in a quicker return to centre, increased responsiveness, and a more direct turning feel over a traditional barrel bushing. This truck comes with a barrel plug and standard barrel combo.
Riding in a pack, downhill, there is always one skater who will be faster than the rest. Better tuck? More aggressive? Less fear? They usually are on Calibers, and that is what these trucks remind me of: In a puff of smoke...they were gone. To be that skater, you need these trucks: Caliber Smoke.
The Fifty Caliber is stable at high speeds while also having an optimal angle for making strong carves. The hanger is not only reversible, but when flipped there is no rake to throw off the ride. The bushing seats are symmetrical with an optimal setup for any style of bushing. The pivot of the baseplate is self contained keeping it from having any weakness. The Blood Orange Bushings at an 89a durometer make for an ideal responsiveness. Perfection...
