i dont think you should get "slow" bearings. if you get good ones as in fast ones you'll learn better and faster in my opinion

black widows are fast, they just get dirty too quickly so people think they are slow

yeah, it will make them break faster. get some speed demons, not to slow not to fast

do the speed demons last long? And are they actually good?

Bones Reds or Powell Minilogos are gonna be good for you. Not terribly fast, they last a long time, and they are only 10 bucks.

I agree with "dsc6072", but (dont flame me if i'm wrong, i'm from Oz) Reds get faster as you warm them up... I broke both my armz riding them though... get monilogos, there cheep and thay last a long time.
