New Skate Product, Seismic -

Warning: Seismic Activity! 🌋

Don't panic...

It's not an actual seismic alarm.

It's a slalom cone.

Everyone can wiggle round cones (though perhaps not as well as UK legend Martin Sweeney):

 

It's very easy to start and yet incredibly difficult to master.

There is perhaps no better way to improve your boardfeel. It'll teach you how to pump, how to grip, how to corner and how to set up a board to your own liking.

Back in the day we didn't bother with cones, we'd drink beers and line up the cans.

But we're old now. We've made the jump and have competition standard Seismic slalom cones available in the shop.

And if you do feel the need to tweak your setup to assist the wiggle...

Seismic have got you covered there, too.

The Seismic Defcon barrel bushings offer the widest range of durometers known to mankind Vandem - and you'd be surprised how soft you can go in the front truck, if the back is a little more solid.

Available from 73a to 97a and in packs of 2 - enough for one truck. We'd suggest starting with a ~10a split between front and back, to add a little pumpy pizzaz to the daily drive.

And well, sometime down the line when your trucks turn to a T and your pump has perked up...

You might just want some of that juicy Defcon urethane to roll around on too.

The narrower models would suit a long-distance pumping board like the Pantheon Supersonic, whilst a pure slalom machine would benefit from the extra width and grip of the Deltas.

Seismic do make some pretty epic bearings too, but I'm running out of space here. Some things you'll have to work out for yourself.

Other brands are available,
