bones swiss bearings are the best you can buy. indy bearings are just cheap standard run of the mill bearings. swiss bearings will be faster and smoother and last longer than any other bearing, including independent bearings.

I will be getting these as my next bearings. They're the same price as reds too.

Cool deal, they just opened a new shop in Selma.
I might try those Independents though after watching the video. Though I do love my Bones

I'd stick with a bearing company and wait to see if indy actually makes some good ones first.

I had a set of Indy abec 7's awhile back. They were fast as fuck, but they shitted out on me faster than expected. The inside actually completely broke apart. Maybe a bad set?

The only reason I get bones reds is cause they're cheap and I know they won't be complete garbage. These indy's are the same price though and by that test they outperform bones swiss, sounds good to me.
