i have found the bones ceramics very good and i got mine off ebay for about $160. ky? not quite as i live in england and because of this when i got the bearings off ebay from an american seller i also had to pay about another $40 import tax. the best thing to do with ceramics which is what i do is to also get some bones speed cream and then clean them every few months or when they sound like they need it. this keeps them running smoother and makes them last ages. but it's not just with ceramics as i have some friends who have 6 balls and they service easily aswell. good luck with skating next week 8)

hey Paul, theres a place in the highlands near somewhat close(i think) to the skatepark. its an actual "skate" shop. its called Pro Quality Skates. maybe you could find those bones there?
ya b ut i dont have $200 to drop on berings right now. I want to get my cozmo's before i get the ceramics.

good point.... i won't spend that much on bearings anyways. but i'm bout to get some sti pros. are they any good? they seem like good skates.
you mean slomon STI pros? If you do get them you'll want to buy the widebody souls with them or get really good at grinding with only 1/2 an inch of soul space.
KYSkater
10-27-2004, 04:50 PM
yea, the soloman STi Pro's, and i saw those widebody souls, but wasn't sure if i wanted them or not. i found a great deal on the skates, thats why i was thinking of getting them. http://secure.rollerwarehouse.com/ORStore/free-skates/free-skates.aspx
have the solomans for vert, and save my razors for street. i dunno.
that is a good deal but it's hard to get used to 2 different skates. i've tried it and i just couldn't get used to it. and it doesn't take that long to change out toyr frames so i would just stick with one skate and just chenge out frames

yea, but i need some more clothes too. all of mine have huge holes in them from skating too much. i dunno, i'll figure something out, i don't know if i'll get them or not, i was just thinking about it.
\i'm getting some new clothing for the trip, a senate kill team zipper hoodie, and a mindgame benie.

Yellow Able Frames (yes, they are actually yellow...pretty cool huh?)

i had some crap bearings for about 6-9months so they were not as good as they once were but then i got bones ceramics and they really did feel alot faster and smoother.
