might pull the trigger on these bearings - want to try out new bearings
https://www.amazon.ca/Pro-Skateboard-Bearings-Titanium-Longboard/dp/B06XXK6FPQ?ref_=ast_sto_dp
their branding is pretty corny (judge for yourself) and they claim high speeds like every other bearing brand
Does anyone have any experience with headyshake bearings? or heard of their performance etc etc
also, is there a difference between the dark and gold bearings? thanks :)

Why bother wasting your money on something that isn't bones swiss. They might cost more but they roll twice as good and last four times as long as the competition. It's a no-brainer.

Why waste money on anything but Bones? + "Waterproof sticker" and talking about ABEC turns everybody off

Bearings is the one thing I pay attention to the least on my setup. I usually just get reds or some other middle range priced bearings, pop the shields off, and then never worry about them. I’ll usually have a set on backup and replace em as they break one by one; one bearing will break maybe once every like five or six months.

Probably because you can get better bearings for half the price. There's nothing inherently wrong with bones Swiss but you're definitely paying a premium for the name. As much as I hate to say it because the guy strikes me as a huge dildo, I'll take rockin Ron's $25 nmb's over bones any day of the week.

Looks like he's got some in stock at the moment. Sadly, his ceramics have jumped in price.
