These bearings are the best I have tried, I wonder tho how the ceramic bearings will ride?. they seem to roll for ever, however the seals are there weak link, there fragile one can bend them easy with a skate tool while tightening the nuts on the trucks, so be carfull.

With my Falcon and Revenge trucks they performed really nice the Vents seem to roll for ever, giving me more carving time between pushings. With the Highland I pick more speed while bombing garages and the speed carries farther on the flats.
I have not tryed any other bearing with my Slalon rig so I can't comment but they feel great while ripping throug some cones.

overall I will rate this bearings very high, I'm complitly satysfy with there performance, also use the Oust lubricant it's very good.
