new bearing company- Cortina

[Francis Xavier]

They'll be able to monetize anything so long as they're connected to Supreme and FA. Cortina may very well sell more shirts at a markup than sets of bearings.

I think most bearing and hardwear companies are undercover clothing companies

[pointandclick]

When Bones Bearings exist, why does anyone think a bearing company is a good idea? The only bearing company that was interesting to me in the last couple decades was that non-skate bearing manufacturer that put Arto on a few years ago (I don't remember the name). Still wish I'd tried a set of those.

skf? i thought it was reynolds that was on.

Oh yeah, that was it. Wasn't Arto on as well?

Sounds so close to Microsoft's personal assistant product Cortana.

The Cortana logo is a circle.

Coincidence?

The exception being weed and mushrooms, Alberta easily has the best drugs in canada. It's very abnormal to not be a junky making $35/h in that province

Jesus christ people complaining about Trudeau, one of the most annoying things to listen to. Even more annoying than people fucking complaining about Harper.

Alberta can suck a dick.

I remember once I was at a skate park and saw Daewon skating/filming something, but he consistently complained about how his Andale bearings were too sticky. I wonder if he secretly switched to bones?

I at one time was the dummy that tried to save money on bearings not realizing the greatness of bones bearings and how long they last. Granted back in the day I really couldn't afford 30 dollar bearings going through decks every two weeks. Man I miss doing nothing but skating. Now I'm just an old who gets out when I can

Bronsons are for real amazing. When they first came out, they were similarly priced to reds, but better. Then the price went up and they weren't worth it after. I got a pair of the shieldless ones though as a gift and they're really impressive.

Interesting...

I can't wait to pay someone $300 to colour my nuts.

[sharkin]

I heard they have a new-new shape

[seasonszine]

I remember those SKF bearings. I wanted to try those too and never did.

I worked at a dairy from 2010 - 2014, my friend was a maintenance worker there. I was hanging out with him in one of the maintenance work areas and they had tons and tons of different bearings on hand for when machines there would break down, or for whatever reason needed bearings replaced. Almost all of them were SKF. No point to this story at all, just thought that was kind of cool.

I colored a girls ass/poon with paint markers once. I don't think I'd do it to testicles though

[iwishilivedinfinla]

how can you show off what bearings you ride anyway? do you constantly clean them and carry around a flashlight for illumination? is that what the colored nuts are for?

like someone else said, with bones existing there isn't a need for other brands. i get that lucky appeals to kids, having been a kid that lucky appealed to. i get how zero or flip bearings appeal to the zero/flip heads (but the black widow zero bearings of the early 2000's were actually wicked). and all the spec's that technical bearings like bronson put out can be appealing to skaters who want as much info as possible... but at the end of the day, those 60 dollar black bones are far and away the best.

i really hope these bearings are $300

Your sig perfectly captures what I’m going to need to do if someone was going to paint my taint portion of this thread.

Nah, they'll just call it Nike Speed Bearings and keep using the NikeSB logo.

They did all of theee Above in the Golf Game

[Ineffable Epoch]

Starting a bearing company just seems like a shitty front to sell stickers. You're know they're all just going to ride Swiss anyways.
