Orangatang Nipple Medium Longboard Bushings
The Orangatang Nipple Medium Bushing Set is the go-to choice for riders who want a lively, surf-inspired carve with a bit more stability and control than the Soft version. Designed for carving, pumping, dancing, and freestyle longboarding, these bushings deliver energetic rebound while staying supportive at higher speeds or under heavier pressure.
Made with Orangatang’s extremely high-rebound Randy Thane formula, Nipples Medium provide crisp return-to-center, powerful pumping efficiency, and smooth, predictable lean. They’re ideal for riders looking for that “just right” balance between playful flow and confident stability.
