When Freeline Skates first got imported into the UK a friend ordered in a bunch of them. I immediately swapped the basic bearings for a really silky set I’d been saving for one of the longboards.
Huge mistake. Suddenly those freelines had a mind of their own, accelerating at minimal input.
Definitely worthwhile having good bearings, but only if you want the zoomies.
