Bones Super Swiss 6 vs Bones Swiss Labyrinth

They are priced about the same, anyone know which one is better/faster?

[Mustakrakish]

i too had this question

my friend has super swiss 6 ball bearings

so i bought labrynth swiss, either mine are not sufficiebtly worked in or the 6 ball kick the crap out of them.

moral of the story = go with the 6 balls

I've heard of a man. He is a great man. His name is Rockn' Ron.

6-balls have a higher top-end speed than the conventional Bones.

I have ridden swiss, swiss 6 ball and swiss labynth. I currently ride swiss and they are plenty fast on my speedboard. The 6 balls may be faster, but I havent tried them side by side. I think the labrynth was my favorite though, just as fast as a swiss but there was a very noticable increase in time between the need to clean them...

But yes Roc'n Ron is the way to go. I know his rockets bearings are 7 balls, supposedly faster then swiss and have a labrynth shield... Whats the deal with his new missile bearings? Are they a 6 ball version? Anyways both are around $25-$30's respectivly so they are cheaper and faster then bones... And the rockets are basically half the cost of the bones swiss labynth for an equal or better bearing.

[Mile_High_Mark]

All of the Ballistech/Rons bearings have 7 balls/bearing.

Clean, well-lubed bearings are fast(er) bearings. Clean and lube often, and your bearings will last longer, and run faster/smoother.

So what is the difference with the rockets and the missiles?

Back when I looked into his bearings he only had rockets, first time I heard about missiles was when I saw them on your site.

Missiles are a little faster. I was going to post a pic of them side-by-side, but I'm out of both.

[Jraice]

What mod's to the design increased the speed? I am thinking I will try rockets or missiles out next, its easier to pick up bearings at the local shop but I think I will go for it and order some...

I don't remember all the changes, to be honest.

I own a set of regular bones swiss and a set of the super swiss. I like the originals better.

I've been DHing on the same Bones Swiss' for more than a year and a half and, thanks to good maintenance, they're fast as ever.

I've been running Labrynth's for a while now. I love em but I'd really like to
see them side by side w/ the 6 ball. I would be riding Rock N Ron's but that
fool is a flake. Never returned our emails or phone calls.

Bearings I have tried:

Abec 5 gravity
Bones Red
Pleasure Tools Abec 7
Bones Swiss
Rockn Ron Ballistech Missiles

The Swiss and the Missiles are easily the best out of the lot. I've wished I'd ordered more than one set of the missiles one more than one occasion. The Swiss have seen the most use, and are above useful criticism.

On the other hand, as Ron has free shipping through 12/24, I've ordered two more sets. I haven't had any concern about ordering from him in the past.

I ended up grabbin a set of 6-ball's since I got them under cost (and because my cuz
bought me a bottle of Oban 14 year single malt highland scotch, saved me $60 since I was bout to
buy it) for my new setup. Gonna toss them in my 97's and put together my new setup when my
trucks arrive this week and see how they compare once broken in.
