RHINO ABEC 5 BERINGS
Bearing reviews
These are really good bearings. They are great on gym floors. I have heard that some people only have to pump every thirty seconds. I have to do it a little more often. Just a little reminder to those of you not quite so experienced, don't wd40 your bearings. it dissolves the grese inside.

TNT Bearings
I have heard that these are really good bearings for a while. They get dirty really fast. When these get dirty they don't work very well, obviously. you can't clean these because they don't have removable sheilds. I can't find anyone that likes these.
Bones Reds
I have heard that these berings are just as good as Swiss Bones but they don't last as long. I have only had one pair. That pair must have been a factory reject or something but they are terrible. I got them am put them on my board and about four days into skating on them, three of the sheilds popped out, and the supposed super polished  (however they put it) inside got scratched on four of them, so now they pack a lot of friction so I slow down faster and they are really noisy. I think my first skateboard's berings (Nash)
were better than these. These cost about 20 dollars.
Swiss Bones
I don't own any of these but my friend does so I have skated them quite a bit. One word describes these: AWESOME!!!
He has had them for three years and hasn't cleaned them once yet. They are still just as good. He has also had the same wheels on them for the past year and as most of us know, bad wheels make your bearing appear to stink. Well his don't, it might just be the kind of wheels he has but I doubt it. These bearings are kind expensive compared to Bones Reds. They cost about 35 dollars.
