On a spur-of-the-moment impulse buy I bought these because I have like a gajillion face wheels to go through

so, I decided to go down a hill and test them and I almost crapped my pants. These things are the fastest bearing I've ever tried.

Money well spent!

I love face wheels, I just bought 2 pairs off of someone and they grip so well. I don't even care if they wear down quick, you can get them for so cheap.

Where do you get face wheels? My driveway is like sandpaper and I go through wheels like crazy when I skate.

Oh shit! I didn't even notice that... When I got mine originally, the shipping was only like $30 bucks. My bad.

Yeah I looked at it and thought it was $50, glad I looked again. It's probably a typo, unless the guy is just a jackass fishing for stupid bidders.
