honestly, bearings dont mean much. just keep whatever you have clean, and theyll all roll more than quick enough for you

Bones is the best company...bone reds spin amazingly and are meant for casual street skating, while Swiss bones spin faster and are competition bearings, Bones Ceramics rule, I mean Holy ****ing Christ a guy at boarderline (my park) had them and damn he went across the whole park with one push, get Swiss bones if ya can afford it even though reds are half the price

powell mini logos are ok... they feel kinda like abec 3 black panthers. i recommend bones swiss or super swiss w/e if u have the money for them by the way they are too high quality so be rated by abec (in other words beyond abec 7) and abec doesnt necessarily mean faster but it means the precision that the parts are made and how high quality the materials used is. the abec ratings are rated for machinery that usually spins over 10,000 rpm much faster than a skateboard rolls.

when i went to clean my black panther abec 5's yesterday i took out the ebaring and every crown except for 2 were cracked. most in over 3 places. so i put in an old set of redz and they have been working pretty good. i recommend reds of the flip hkd bearings. my friend just got them and they are pretty nice
