Hey Claudine Ifn your after bearings I'd highly recomend Rockin Rons Balistec Rockets.They are as good as they come and at a fraction of the price of the name brands and none of the b/s factor.Search up his history on the web and read about how all the bearing companies have been pulling our pants down for years.Interesting stuff with a good ending,we should suport doods like that.

cheers joe

: I think my skates are about as good as it gets now, except the bearings. Couldnt be much happier with them. But I thought I would ask just in case you guys have something that I would never be able to get in the US. Guess if she asks, I'll ask for chocolate lol.

 My Mom is going to Germany any day now. Is there anything there that she can bring me back skating wise? I think I asked beforehand and the answer was no but thought I would ask again just in case.

 Hey, found some on the internet and they say Missiles are faster then the rockets for steel. I think ceramics are not so necessary? I'm not a pro...

http://www.skatetechnology.com/rocknronsbearings.htm

Are those faster then swiss6? I'm not going to ask for much for Christmas this year but I want bearings and maybe something warm to wear so its not so cold for winter skating. I will see if tomorrow I can find out where the concrete ditches are locally to see of my 95a wheels will be OK. I'll do that when the park closes! I think my speed for pumping is more form (and my dumb a$$ knee) right now then bearings honestly, but I have abec BSB and they suck. Unless they come up with trucks with springs, I think I'm fairly set on my general set up, pretty close to perfect!! I hope my plates and trucks last me til I die. Gosh, too bad I cant get a new knee for Christmas cause I'm all pumped up now to grind and all.
