Bones Reds are the BEST for affordability, roll, and speed...but not just on skateboards. My family uses them for roller skating.I'm slowly working on getting sets - and an extra set - for every single one of us. I've got them in mine, let my husband try them, and our middle daughter loves them in hers.I'll never look at another ABEC rated bearing again. Even just popping them in, putting the wheels back on, and spinning them, you could already tell the difference, but skating them? They were even more amazing!With a family of 7, we need "inexpensive but reliable", these more than fit the bill.
