I own a lot of longboard setups and this is my prefered bearing. I am still using the same set from 2 years ago and still feel like a new set from regular maintenance with bones speed cream and cleaner. When you clean these bearing make sure you read the instructions you'd be suprised what you've been overlooking.

These bearings have changed the way my Dervish rides. Not only do i notice the smoothness on hills and coasters but also when I change the direction of my board it is easier for my wheels to change direction, in shove-its and tiger-claws, etc...

Coming from Bones Reds, I was amazed at how these bearings feel. They are so much smoother than the Reds and also seem to be made of much higher quality materials.

Best bearings money can but behind the bones ceramics. Super fast and lasts a long time with basic upkeep... clean/lub every couple weeks. Keeps me rolling fast and loud.

I always buy the Swiss Bones bearings. They are the only bearings that I trust to spin and last forever. This is the first time I've bought the "labyrinth" style ones. I bought these four years ago. They still spin like new and I have literally never cleaned them. These things spin forever and ever and ever.

Swiss Bones, labyrinth or otherwise, are the only bearings you need. When they eventually wear out, I will just buy these again. I can't think of any really good reason to buy any other kind of bearings. The Swiss Bones are expensive, buy they are worth it. You could buy cheaper bearings, but it will not save you money. You will have to replace them way before you'd ever have to replace these.

Well, they definitely took a couple of days of NYC streets to break in, but now they are starting to roll like I expected. I threw a set of these bad boys in some Abec 11 gumball wheels and now I'm cruising. Just don't over tighten the nut that holds the wheel on the truck. But, that goes for any bearing you use. It winds up adding friction and doesn't allow the bearings to do their job.

I like the concept behind the design of these bearings, but only time will tell if they are worth the money.
