yeah that's a bit pricey. I'd never buy ceramic bearings. I got my dervish for 127.

Haha, I'd love to see how the S10's perform. They are just so much bigger than my S8's and make me think that the 10's would lose some of the feel.

Dancing on original trucks are gonna be abnormally harder than most other trucks. Props on the custom build though. I almost bought s10's when putting my dervish together. I opted out and got paris (yay bandwagon). I might do this on my next board to get that super "SURFY" feel. +3 for creativity.
