   I was very reluctant to try these because they were so inexpensive and I wanted high quality. After JD confirmed that these can be compared to a $10 bearing…I thought I would give them a try. After testing them I found that my first thoughts were not at all correct. Wow…the quality of these bearings is amazing. Great unresponsive play. They arn’t the quietest bearings, but make a nice smooth sound. I would say these are on the same level as the YYF SPEC, but for about half the price. Defiantly buy these. You will get you moneys worth.

   JD was nice enough to throw in a Buddha Bearing into my order when I was going on a string binge.

   I will say that when compared to other C-size flat bearings it is tied for 1st with the 10 Ball. The Buddha factory stock is pretty clean and has noticeably long spin times. The Bearing is louder than the 10 Ball. The noticeable differences between the 2 is that the bearing outside string surface is flat all the way to edge where as 10 Ball has a slight rounded edge. This is a plus for yo-yos with larger gaps or adjustable gaps since there is less chance of a string thread getting caught between bearing and side wall and tearing. I do notice that the feel of the bearing when playing is less smooth or solid feeling in string combos compared to 10 Ball. This does not effect play in any way just a very very flight difference in how play feels. Performance is certainly equivelant to 10 Ball and even better when cleaned.

   For the Price it is a no-brainer in a way given a blind test to ten ball in not knowing which is in which you won’t be disappointed in any way. and just to make up for not getting a more expensive bearing get 2 for twice the fun!

   I was searching for some new, fairly high quality bearings for a few of my yoyos that have more inferior bearings already in them. I came across these and thought for the price I might as well try them considering they’re 10-ball and stainless steel.

   My impressions so far? Fantastic quality! They aren’t particularly quiet at first, which is common for bearings when they’re new, but after a while they quiet down and stop making so many screaming noises. The spin time out of the package was very impressive and I like how solid they make the yoyo feel. Speaking of that, these tend to give the yoyo a heavier feel when doing string tricks. It’s not a concave so it’s going to feel different regardless, but it makes it feel less floaty depending on the yoyo if that makes any sense.

   These are really good for the price, especially if you get the four pack. If you like flat bearings and want an easy replacement you might wanna consider trying them.

   I just ordered two and can’t wait for their arrival. These bearing are AMAZING. Period. Although, they are a pain to clean. Use acetone.
