I got some Bones Super Swiss Six for Christmas and they spun for like 1 min and they were hella fast then they started to spin for like 15 seconds and they were slow so I cleaned and re lubed them and rode them for 2 weeks and they still go really slow. Should I get new bearings?

You have to clean them pretty often, depending on where and how much you skate. What did you clean them/lube them with? Did you take them all the way apart?

I'd rather have super 6 than reds anyday.

I don't like bones at the end because they usually get fucked up. RnR bearings ftw.

They have a metal cage instead of the crown like Bones. I like my Fkd abec 3's, they're fast and smooth.

I don't know what is wrong with your bearings then. I guess you should get new ones

completely dismantel the bearing and then clean it with a microfiber cloth, then put it back together and relube it. there's a guide in my profile comments on how to do it.
