Ceramic Skateboard Bearings, Premium 608rs Ball Bearing - Pro Longboard Bearings for Quad Skate, Inline Roller Blades, Scooters, Spinners,ABEC, 8 Pack (Blue_1)

In 2020 I bought 2 sets to use in my outdoor quad skates. I skate through a lot of debris and dirty surfaces, sometimes wet conditions and always humid. These have a very smooth, consistent and fast roll even without regular cleaning. Much better quality than my last set of VBX hybrid ceramic bearings, and come in excellent packaging. Great price, great value for the money.Update 2023: I've been skating on these bearings for several years on my outdoor skates, and just as happy as could be with their performance and durability for the price. I skated the Sarasota Inline Marathon on quad skates in 2021 using Kveni bearings and they were great. I also have some Bones Reds Ceramics on my indoor setup, and I think the Kveni are nearly as good. I've gotten these bearings wet and didn't have time to clean them for several days, making them freeze up solid with rust, but the balls came out very well after I soaked them in cleaner and got them going again with just a little work. The ceramic balls then polished up the remaining rust on the interior races during normal use. I continued to use those same bearings for hundreds more miles of outdoor trails. I still recommend them to my friends as a great option whether they're on a budget or not. They stand up to a lot of abuse and frequent cleaning, and still roll very smoothly.

It's like opening a present! The sheer smoothness as these bearings spins is amazing. Tried these babies on for the first time as I was rotating my wheels and I paired them with a brand new set of KSS 80 mm wheels and went out for a stroll! The difference that you could feel with each stroke felt amazing. I was flying maintaining high speeds on my blades and keeping control as I did my spins, jumps, and other tricks did not make me want to get off of them...that's of course when I got caught in a thunderstorm. Yup that's right, made it home soaking wet so I got to enjoy these dry for a couple of hours until I had to take them off, clean them of the sand debris and dry them. Since then, I have been enjoying how they have been staying super smooth and withholding the amount of force I have been putting on them. So far, no issues, there is no shield on the retainer side of the bearing so I have been frequently cleaning the excess grease and debris out. Overall though, I am happy with this purchase!

Ill be blunt; theres better ones out there as ive personally discovered through multiple orders lol. These arent bad, id be hard pressed to say theyre even average, but when all you have to do to buy better ones is look around a bit, its hard to say these are super worth it or anything exciting. They spin well, i havent counted in a bit but i think i got 8 of them. A simple spin in your hand and it'll probably spin for like 5-15 seconds unimpeded. So they are about right for their price range and if you arent looking for super high end bearings, these should work just fine. Definitely no regrets with the purchase, but due to my specific needs (high end bearings, for a science experiment) i wont purchase these again.

Great bearings in my little street surf

A neighbor's kid gave my daughter his old long board because she expressed interest. It hadn't been used in years. The old bearings were pretty froze up. I'm 53, so my days of skating are long over. I started doing some research on replacement bearings and discovered the idea of ceramic bearings. I paid a scant $13 for this set, so I'm not expecting miracles, but I also know my daughter. She isn't going to be a power user of her board. It will be used infrequently, and likely left in the elements when she forgets to bring it in.She rode around the neighborhood and said the board rolled very well on these bearings. I decided to try it myself. I have nothing to compare them to, but the board sure seemed to glide on them to me. If the ceramic bearings mean that this board rolls better after they get wet, then to me this is $13 well spent. I kind of wish I was young again and that my knees weren't garbage. Long boarding seems like it could be fun. If these bearings fail in any way in the future, I will update my review.

This is exactly what I was looking for to make my longboarding dreams come true. These ceramic bearings make my ride so smooth. And with a push, these things just roll so smooth and quietly. I feel safe and steady.

Started reviewing wheels, bearings, and related combos, starting Summer 2024. These were a slight lrlet down in the hardware department. They roll smooth, but there's no in er race and no hardware to go between the bearings and the surround hardware (Axle but, inner axle post). Definitely a bit odd. That part was a let down, but they're smooth turning. Like Bravord bearings, but without the extra hardware. I'll be running them on 58mm, 90a Powell wheels. If it's deemed so, or seems worth it, I'll post more regarding the durability, and lack of hardware related ride comparisons as well. The noise is minimal, a low hum, but I have yet to respond a out the rest and how they ride.

It’s difficult to rate bearings within the first days of use, you must use them for months and or years and only then know whether or not your purchase was good or bad.
