Did you guys have some money to blow and thought might as well, or are these really worth the money? I know they're "the best" but how much of a difference can there be between these and $15.00 bearings?

I get them for the durability. I clean them and upkeep them and they outlast $15.00 bearings for me. Plus they do actually roll really nicely. If you've got the money for them they're a solid investment. I can usually keep them through 6-7 sets of wheels

I've been skating on the same set of Super Swiss 6's since the summer of 2010. I think I paid roughly $30 for them on a Skate Warehouse summer sale. I can firmly say that no other bearing that I have owned has lasted even half this long, regardless of price.

[ROCKxADIO420]

just buy 2 sets of reds at once and switch them out individually as needed. you wont remember the last time you spent money on bearings

[happenstance]

Yep, I live by Reds. Best bang for your buck by far.

love swiss, had mine in for over a year, same for the last set, worth the $45-50, they're $100 here in australia

[dillanharp]

I buy bearings every time I buy wheels because I'm too lazy to take them out and I'm not buying shit with my allowance.

i dont even know how old mine are to tell you the truth. theyve seen 3 pairs of trucks. definitely need to be replaced now, but they last a LONG time. worth every penny.

[Filip]

Got a little shopping spree.

[Smell Good]

So stoked. Made in 'Murica.

I've been wanting a pair of 998s for awhile now and slept on these ones when they came out. Finally found some in my size.

haha. Never had good bearings to be honest, shitty ones have always been sufficient. You guys convinced me though, I'm splurging soon.

my gf got me these two decks at a Vans outlet for $55 w/ grip (both 8.1. so stoked on 'em)



found the Polar hoody for 30 bucks on the premier site. also picked up some formula fours and an un-obnoxious neff corduroy hat for cheap from there. shirts/hat for a little over $5 each at Vans store and some levis & calvin klein pants from tha mall.

bought tickets for this too.



was gonna buy the blue/grey premium Project B.A.'s, but $120 + shipping is crazy for a skate shoe. i'll have to wait till those get marked down before i pull the trigger.
