I've been using them, for around six months, probably an average of 2-3 hours a week. They've stood up well to the damp weather, although they're quite noisy now.

Equipment Reviews

How long have you ridden them?: 6 months
What Setup are you running them on?: Sector 9 Carbon Trylam.
Typical Discepline?: Carving
How much did you pay for them?: 0 Stock
Where did you buy them?: Oddballs, Brighton
What are their weaknesses?: They've got crimped on covers so they can't be cleaned effectively. Apparently it's possible to remove one cover however I'm hesitant to do that as they're still working great.
What are their strengths?: Fast, really fast.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Bones reds, Builtin, Purple Skunk ABEC 3, Enuff waterproof ABEC 7.
Would you recommend them?: Yes

go for other bearings with removeable shields.

What Setup are you running them on?: Joel tudor, s9 nineball
Typical Discepline?: cruising, sliding
How much did you pay for them?: 0, they came with stock complete
Where did you buy them?: zumies, as a complete
What are their weaknesses?: permanent shielding. hard to open without some tool and once the shield is removed, the shield would be too bent to be placed back. hard to clean

My friend rode his for many months (5-6) and once it got old, it was really bad. It barely rolled.

Would you recommend them?: No
