HIKS GREEN SLIME - ABEC 11 608 RS Water Resistant Rubber Seal Skateboard/Stunt Scooter Pack of 8

Very very good bearing for its price. Will buy again and it saves me the hassle of having to clean and grease them again. Although I’ve already did that once and it worked as new but by the price might as well buy new ones, or not. Up to you but worth the price. Love them

Bought as set of replacement bearings and seem very nice and smooth, no real difference to more expensive reds so far. No complaints.

Every since I brought my first bearings from you, I will keep buying them, good quality and good service, thank you

My poor old skates had been in storage for a number of years and along with wheel replacements, I needed to get new bearings (most of mine had either 'dished' from being maltreated or had been so gunged up with dust and hair from skating indoors that they were practically at a standstill).I sought out some decent replacements and stumbled across the Green Slime bearings packages, sold by HIKS. Ridiculously good value, a mere £5.99 for 8 bearings (where I remember paying about £40 for a pair of Abec 10s when I originally had my skates).A couple of words to the wise though (nothing to do with the seller or the bearings but a bit of research works wonders).1) Know your ABECs. If you're at all wowed by the fact that you're buying ABEC 11s firmly believing that you're going to move like a greased weasel purely because of that number, you might benefit from a read of http://shop.vandem-mfg.co.uk/abec-skate-bearings.html - which is a fantastic guide to ABEC standards.2) With all skate bearings (whether you're a rec skater, vert skater, aggressive skater or just a scooter maniac) decent regular maintenance is key. These bearings are supplied pre-greased so you don't need to go too nuts applying a decent water-shedding lube to them as it's already on there but after a month, strip down your skates and see how they're wearing in and also give them a good clean and lube again. You'll extend the lifetime of an already precision-made product no end. As the linked article says, it's not about the numbers, it's about the build quality of your bearings and how well you look after them.To underline the above, I stuck these on my skates, and I'm very pleased with them but if you're expecting a longer spin-time compared to, say, a fairly decent pair of ABEC 5 or 7 bearings, you won't magically get it - but for this price, you really won't find a better deal for a fantastic quality product.

had a chance to use the bearings for a bit now and they roll just as good as my reds, dont know how long they will last though saying theyre way cheaper. for being under £10 its a good deal though######### update ###########after skating the bearings for a longer amount of time the retainer cage thing shattered causing the bearings to spin slower, this was due to hard impacts after throwing my board (i know bad idea). if you remove the cage however the bearing can pop at high speed so i would suggest replacing the retainers, after i replaced them the bearings spin just as good again

I was quite excited about getting these because of their waterproof claim and there were so many great reviews. I’ve put them on my second board (the one I ride when it’s a bit wet) but unfortunately after 1 ride in the rain two of my wheels seem to have stopped rotating. Overall these bearings seem alright, but not really waterproof and I’m glad I’m only using them for my spare board

Decent budget bearings. Used daily for several miles of skating.

They do not roll. Absolutely gutted that the ABEC 5s that came on my complete skateboard roll significantly better than these.
