Are Andale still a thing seen a few skate shops in the uk have the andale swiss at around bones reds price wouldn’t mind comparing a set to my bones Swiss

They're not great bearings. The "Swiss" are made in China. I'd recommend Modus over Andale any day.
Stay away from Andale. If you want a great cheap bearing go for the Flip HKD 5 or 7.

Thanks I tend to ride bones Swiss but I’m on my 4th set in 18 months probably due to the to being in Scotland I have not had any bearings last longer than 6 months our paths and roads are pretty shite though.

Get some green skf’s they have grease packed in them so they take awhile to break in, but I think they would be best for colder wetter environments
You want some queso?”

Due to rust or just falling apart? If rust is an issue, ceramic bearings might be worth checking out.
