Spitfire approved for speed. The removable shields keep the crud out, and the durable cage and steel races make for smooth rolling.

Features

ABEC 3 - The ABEC scale is essentially a measurement of bearing tolerance for high precision bearings as dictated by the Annular Bearing Engineering Committee (ABEC). The scale runs from ABEC 1 through ABEC 9 using odd integers only. Essentially, the higher up on the scale a bearing is rated the tighter the tolerance is.
Tighter bearing tolerance means that the bearing moves with less resistance at high speeds, giving you a bit more roll for your push. In general most ABEC 3 or ABEC 5 bearings have steel races (shell of the bearing) with hardened steel ball bearings, and most ABEC 7 or ABEC 9 bearings feature steel races with super hard (much harder than steel) ceramic or titanium bearings.

I’m still a beginner but these have been by go-to since I switched. My first bearings were Andale Swiss Bearings but they seem to need cleaning more often than these and I like the way these feel.
Only downside is it’s black so it’s harder to tell when it needs cleaning but technically you should be going based off of feel for that. Plus I think it looks better.

Definitely would recommend keeping the shields on. I ran mine raw and they didn’t like that, but always can be cleaned and re oiled. The all black look is fire and rust resistant. Sick.

I'm down with cheap bearings, but had a one of these break skating flat ground after about two weeks of infrequent skating. Maybe I just got unlucky. Tactics rules. Deluxe rules too, but I probably wouldn't try these bearings again.
