The Singularity™ bushing design for Channel trucks.

I really value you testing so please wear a helmet. Sessions like these have always been my most susceptible to falling.

The Singularity bushings got me really excited about my mountain board again and I had tons of fun riding it in the woods and mountain bike trails.

I am shocked and super stoked on how much fun I’m having on this board now with the MAD wheels and the looseness of the A/C Singularity set up.

Just amazing to throw around.

Playing around in front of the house hasn’t been this fun since I used to have a black top roads…

Ok i think i found my setup. Im running them on the Bog Roosh which is basically a loanstar deck and enclosure. To make the matrix three trucks work with how big the double stack enclosure is I have a 25 mm riser on front and back. I ran the matrix three trucks with the original bushings in their innermost position, and ran the lightest bushings with no preload.

No bindings, 200lbs geared up, my stance is all over the place – trying to take advantage of all the real estate on this boat. Add a +5° wedge in the front so I was running 40°/25°. Basically as much slack in the system without introducing too much slop. Had some wiggle at center so stopped being stable at about 35 and took massive concentration to push any faster but that’s fine as I don’t like riding around that speed and only pushed it there every so often.

Got a set of the 93a krank a/b/c/d to test from @RipTideSports and started trying different setups. First a/b on my original angles and it was way too divey and unridable. With how much leverage from the massive risers and 40/25 asym it wasn’t compatible. Didn’t even ride that really.

Immediately pulled the wedge from the front and went to B/C. Better but the rear was swimming out from behind me so my weight on a curve/carve was too forward and off balance.

Dewedged the rear -5 and it was better, went to -10 (15 degrees final angle) and it was staying behind me and i cold start putting my weight into the board but the front was feeling twitchy even with a lot of preload.

Switched to c/d and the rear died but the front was still twitchy. Lots of center in the rear but the front was too turny. Did about 30 miles on this to figure it out as it’s rideable but just not right yet. Close

Dewedged the front -5 to 30 so im at 30/15 and it felt much more balanced and smooth but the rear was fighting me to center. Hit 35 on a nice straight like it was nothing. Just a dart but i want bird

Swapped back to the b/c and :kissing_heart::ok_hand:. Was just doing some easy neighborhood loops testing between rain showers and killed a solid hour just enjoying it. Low angles is the key to my set.

Id like to try symmetrical bushings b/b and c/c and either go down a duro in krank or up one in wfb to see if i can kill a little more of the return to center or reduce the progressive pushback a smidge in the rear

Awesome testing, thank you. It makes sense to take advantage of low degree setups since you have so much more lean to work with! We do not have plans to do WFB in this series but we have not tried APS yet either.

Let me know when i can buy a some of the b/c in 93 and 90a. Doesn’t feel like the singularity is a beta - these need to be an option for non binding users on the matrix 3s. These are too good not to get perfect. It’s like the range of use for these trucks is unlocked - best channel truck experience by far. Turns as well as my 50 degree Paris v3s
