I bought a set Review by Brian Blancho

I bought a set of Bones Swiss Bearings in 1991. In that time, many things have changed in skateboarding. I've been through countless decks, many sets of wheels, and a few pairs of trucks but I have the same bearings!!! BONES BEARINGS ARE THE BEST! (Posted on 12/30/2013)

When I first started Review by Alan “Al”

When I first started skating in the late 80's people never really cared what bearings they had-from my experience It was whatever the local skate shop stocked,and my local only had nachi or nsk. Now however there are hundreds of different skate bearings companies all claiming to be the best. Bones reds were the first bones bearings I had and that was when I started skating again and these seemed faster than the others I had and were cheap too. I couldn't resist Bones Swiss and have two decks now with Swiss's on them. Whenever they slow down I clean them in the bones bearing cleaner and apply speed cream. I haven't cleaned them in 9 months now and they're still fast as anything. There's been a lot of talk in OZ about modus bearings and it seems many of the younger lads are buying them, so I tried a set. What I found as that these aren't even as good as the reds let alone the Swiss's. I would like to try the Super Swiss 6 next and would love ceramics but their price is super $ out here in OZ. I'm sticking with the Bones and all these younger lads that talk about abec and the many other brands just don't know what there talking about.....EVERY SKATER SHOULD TRY BONES SWISS and if you clean them they will last ages.

These bearings are Review by alex

These bearings are sooo good, I had REDS and I have the Swiss Originals right now. When I had my REDS I skated in the worst places ever. I would do a gap and land in a sand or dirt pit, and I always skated in the rain. They still held up! It took 2 months of that sh** for anything to happen! and my Swiss are soo fast!!! I have BONES WHEELS too... they are awesome. Bones kicks ass!!!!!! (Posted on 12/30/2013)

Been skating 23 Review by Mark “"String"” Camp

Been skating 23 years. Bones Swiss are still one of my all time faves. Smooth, fast, strong, and easy to maintain. But, they need a step on the inner race to keep dirt out better! (Posted on 12/30/2013)

My Bones Swiss Review by Greg “Greg” Steele

My Bones Swiss bearings were rained on probably 3-4 times, still working like new without oiling! (Posted on 12/30/2013)

I had REDS bearing Review by Luke

Rating

I had REDS bearings as my first pair and they were amazing!, I didn't think that bearings could get any better than that. Then bought a pair of Bones Swiss Bearings with BONES WHEELS and every skatepark I go to everyone wants to use my board because it's the smoothest and fastest board in the park. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER BRAND FOR BEARINGS! (Posted on 12/30/2013)

I love Bones bearings. Review by kenny “ken y” nguyen

I love Bones bearings. I used them since I was 7 and now I'm almost 13. It's been almost 6 years and I still have my pair of Bones Swiss bearings. And I still remember how long it spinned the first day I got my Bones. 42 seconds I was amazed and happy with my bearings. After 9 months, no cleaning too, the bearings spinned even LONGER! 1:22 minute.And then after 5 years 1:56 minute and then right now i just spinned mine... 2:11 minutes. I HIGHLY recommend Bones Swiss Bearings to anybody beginners, intermediates, what so ever

I bought my Review by John

I bought my first set of Bones Swiss 7 years ago, and the served me amazingly, ive only needed replace them once since then.
Fastest, smoothest, longest lasting bearings on the market.
I work in a skate shop and people think im just trying to get them to spend more by buying Bones Swiss but honestly, they are the best value for money you will find, by a long long way!
Invest in the best! (Posted on 12/30/2013)

I've had my set Review by Brian Ernst

Rating

I've had my set of Bones Swiss bearings for about 8 years now, and they've been put threw hell and back and they still work well. Considering how old these bearings are now I haven't minded using these out in the rain (when you're running late and have to get to class, I don't care what the weather is like outside). So even after using these in the rain for the past year, they still work well; once in a while a couple of them seized up, but after some thorough cleaning they continue to work well again.
I highly recommend this bearings, they are extremely durable and long lasting considering they've been abused. If you want these things to last even longer, I recommend researching how to properly clean bearings (I was a beginner and so I didn't know how to clean them properly; even after being partially rusted from leaving them sitting in isopropyl rubbing alcohol when I first tried to clean them, they still lasted for 8 years).
I myself plan on finally picking up a new set and letting my abused set rest in peace. They may cost a bit more than the other cheaper quality brands, but Bones Swiss bearings are really well worth the price. (Posted on 12/30/2013)
