Bones reds for life
Let me know what kind of bearings you guys are riding at the moment
modus
Swiss for about 10years good bearings but just recently reds roll on Enuks
Thomas Purcell modus is dope also
kel Robins hell yea more people riding Reds!
Sundays bcs they're the cheapest haha
Hey Sean, I love the DIY and I'm about to do the same on my bearings. One piece of constructive feedback. I think you need to watch how much lube you put in the bearings because if over lubed they are more susceptible to collecting crud. I know for speed cream they recommend 2 drops. I have heard even less for some other types. I got the Bronson version and I am only going to apply 1 drop per bearing.
thanks mate! deff put too much lube in haha, it spat out all onto the sidewall of my wheel lol , i guess a little goes a long way in this circumstance, cheers for the heads up though dude!
Your energy is so chill, thanks
Is it just me, but the switch from the different camera are super smooth and looks sick
Thatotherwhiteguy124 appreciate that dude! It was tedious to edit lol
Gonna try this out my bearings definitely need a clean haha, skating Sunday bearing atm
Harry Taylor bearings either make or break your session, so you always gotta make sure to keep them spinning to their full capacity lol, sick man Sunday make a good bearing
I'm all for DIY and stumbled upon this when looking up how to clean my rollerskates bearings. Thanks for all the info!! ✌🏼
I've got spitfire cheap shots and redz rn, the cheap shots are surprisingly good, they been dunked underwater couple times and have survived, they last a real good while so if ur skating on a budget, I highly recommend these, they're $20 AUD
That Guy Mark oh wow, that’s a pretty good performing bearing for $20, I wonder what the best quality for price bearing would be
Where'd you cop the spitfire cheap shots?
easily one of my favourite skate channels. love your content sean
Really appreciate that dude, thankyou
I skate spitfire cheap chots and they ar acually really good btw im watching from sweden and i really enjoy watching your videos 👍
I don’t like cheap shots in my opinion but they say what u get
my boy is running the Bronson Raw's, we just did our first cleaning together so he knows what to do, they were so dirty and needed a brush to help them. But they're like brand new now after some elbow grease :P Excellent diy !
“you’ll probably go blind or something” 😂😂
Love your vids man! Also love the d.i.y diaries series! Keep up the great work!
Fellow Aussie here mate. From up in beautiful Bellingen NSW, and I love checking in for your videos. Subscribed after your last video. I skate places like the skate build videos you do, so a lot of dust and crap. I just bought a pair of Bronson raws and I've been skating them for a month. They actually don't collect much dust at all, it seems to fall out as much as it collects in the bearing. I've ridden Bronson g2s and a heap of bones, bones reds and I won't skate another bearing again. RAWS for life. So much better for trick set up as you have a lot more roll for your push. You can get em for 60 bucks if you look around too. Peace mate 🤘
Hey mate! thats awesome, thanks for subscribing , i might actually spend the extra bit of coin and get a set of raws, i feel having enough roll on bearings is so important because it allows you to not worry about pushing 10 times then setting up before a trick lol Appreciate the support dude!
@@SeanEnuks it just feels better for that set up as you said. No rushing foot placement for tricks. No problems man.
Where'd you find them for 60? I've been shopping around for them and I don't want to spring for $80.
@@marcusarruzza7816 it was from eBay. I always support my local but I think this was the last one the guy had, and when I seen them for 60 I jumped on them
@@brettdonahue876 Thanks for replying. I've been eyeing off a set. I'm all for supporting the local too but a deal like that is a deal. I also love a bargain. I'll keep my eye out on ebay, otherwise I'll give my money to basement skate. Cheers
7:14 you really had me thinking you were gonna have a sip 😂😂
Hey Sean Everything is good except don't clean the shields with the cleaner. It will destroy the rubber seal on the shields. Just soap and water for the shields. Love your videos man. Keep killin it
Yo I skated that spot DIY spot a few years ago, now I live in Canada haha
Thanks for the tips homie!
Been wanting to do this for ages but haven't put my mind to it. You have definitely put me in the right direction.
Lewis Rush that’s awesome to hear mate, doesn’t take much effort and once you make it you can re use it as much as you want
cheers bro. gonna try this w my bearings.
Tommy Drof Give it a crack! Your bearings will thank you for it
Getting good at this YT ting g, love the creativity
K Y thank you for noticing 😎
I’m running andales right now ride great
Damn bro you chill asf, I’m really tryna skate with you but no way in hell thats ever gonna happen 😂
Breadsticks Ndip thanks g I appreciate that dude 🙌🙌🙌
I skate bones swiss bearings I’ve had mine for 5 years and another set for a year. How I clean them is with a McDonald’s clear coffee cup, acetone and a good ole shake after that I just put some bones speed cream.
That’s a rad way to get it done, always wanted to try the Swiss bones although the price steers me away every time lol
Nice content bro, subbed!
I ride some random bearings atm but im planning on buying some reds or bronsons✌🏻
Nice vid as always, I like the old school z-flex deck in the background.
Thanks dude!, That thing rips if youre just cruising around, i used to ride it down the street to work when i needed to park my car far away
Currently i'm riding Andale's, the Daewon Song pro model, bought them bc i like the guy and they look like donuts lmao, have had them for a while and when i have to buy new ones i'll probably buy the same bc they ride super well
OK a few things. A cool thing to do would be to actually use the drill to spin them around. It hit me you could to do that with a full bottle and spacers and they’d get very clean very fast. Thing 2. Acetone can dissolve plastic so if you do use something like a used juice bottle that is made with thinner plastic, you might want to pitch it straight after - rinse then bin. The fumes that will off gas will be nasty. Final thing. It’s really easy to get 100% acetone if you look a professional nail polish remover.
Try Red Lithium for your Lubricant. We used to use it back in the day for Vert Sk8 N' and you Wana talk about some speedy bearing's... LOL!!!
I got my board years ago but stopped riding after not learning any tricks and breaking my wrist at my local park but got back into skating during quarantine and learned how to ollie within a couple days, I've never cleaned my bearings tho wasn't really aware i needed to
Paddy Griffin glad to hear you’re back on the board 🙌 haha yea a lot of people don’t know about proper bearing maintenance, I mean you could just fork out the money for a new set but it would be costly and wasteful
@@SeanEnuks yeah for sure I have to stick with the DIY stuff you upload because i am super broke :) I love your DIY skatepark too they definitley give a lot of inspiration keep doing what your doing man
Riding Bronson Raws (their shieldless bearings). Probably will go back to bones Swiss once I’m done with these. Same price and I feel like the bones Swiss perform better.
Jake Scioscia they’re both top tier bearings, I think eventually I’ll jump onto some Bronson Raws in some time
Loving the creative DIY vids bro
Brady Jackson thanks man, I been feeling a lot more creative these days
Nice work bloke
Bit of bloke engineering
Really cool video! Keep em coming!
Just a recommendation instead of using mineral turpentine or acetone use a citrus based degreaser its less harsh on plastic bearing cage and breaks down the oils better. Aloha from hawaii 🤙🤙🤙
I have used Indy abec 7's for a while and really like them.
Abec 7s are awesome
I'm riding bones big balls and Bronson G3. They're both good.
Matt Lane I wonder what the most choice bones bearings would be, I’m so keen on some G3’s or Raws to be honest
@@SeanEnuks honestly I'm really liking the bones big balls. And they're only like 5 dollars more than reds. But you can't go wrong with either.
What cleaning solution do you recommend or use for the bearings?
I just cleaned my bones swiss and used that tri flow as well! How did it work for u after all?
hey sean, i really like your evening decks how could i buy one?
can you use bike chain lube for bearing oil?
This channel is underrated
Appreciate that dude, just patiently waiting for youtube to throw me a bone lol
I've literally only ever skated Reds bearings, I'm thinking of trying out the Miniligo bearings
I skated reds since i was a kid until now, these bronsons go really well
Can i use a normal acetone? Like the one you use when your cleaning your nails?
I was thinking instead of using the cup for the shields you could just put them in the bottom of the bearing cleaning bottle
I started riding g2s as well
They go hard
Are you from Socal? I live in temecula and i was actually planning on going to overcast skate shop pretty soon!
I wish I was, in from Australia lol, overcast is a sick local skate shop
Hey m8,
What lube you using ?
needed this video
Glad you dig it!
I ride dark wolf are they as good as bones redz or should I switch to redz
Wait I don’t get it are spacers optional like those metal things that go between your wheels
I do a similar thing to clean my bearings
What’s the info size on the hardware ?
Quality vid bro
Glad you can dig this style of video!
sick dope vid bro
Cheers dude!
I’m using mini logos, how frequently should I clean my bearings?
Nice man, I used to ride those mini logo boards a lot growing up, I don't think they did bearings back then though, I would recommend cleaning your bearings maybe once every 3 months, give or take, really depends what kind of terrain you are skating, street skating will definitely cause your bearings to get dirtier compared to skating parks
bronson raw on bowl board. but have g2 on my street setup
i heard the bronson raws go really well, the g2s have been great to me
Putting the cleaning solution on your shields could warp your shields
bones reds, I was looking at bronson raw's but don't know what the difference of those in quality to the g3's are?
Dude go for the RAWS. They are great. I skate dusty streets and areas and they hold up well, 1 month in. As much dust falls out as falls out. Easy to clean. Makes your skating better as the roll is way better for setting up for tricks.
Reds seem to be the industry standard almost, Bronsons i believe are a way better product though in my opinion
@@brettdonahue876 I really wanna try a set of g3s or raws ive only heard good things about them
@@SeanEnuks RAWS look cool and sound awesome. I'm sure they are roughly the same but I could buy the RAWS for 60 bucks instead of their normal price of 80 or 90 bucks. That's why I went raws
Brett Donahue I mean if you have a plug that can hook you up, I would do that for sure also
Shake junt! 🤘🏻
Whenever i read shake junt in my head im like ' Shake junt shake junt shake junt '' lol
I'm the same way but with chicken bone nowison lol 😄
Use a strao for Spenser’s
Cut up a straw to use as a spacer. I did that for a diy
bearing maintenance is so key
Scott MacDonald it is often neglected the most, but it sure does make a hell of a difference when they’re maintained!
thanks so much!!!
No worries!
I’m using shake junt bearings
Toby Owen Hunting I’ve never tried shake hunts, but I’ve heard good things
Diy Skate Wax?
i just heated up my metal stick, so that it just fit perfectly in. though the smell of melting plastic was atrocious. lol
Reds all the way
Reds are the OG bearings in my humble opinion
Make sure you all subscribe. Happy skating peanuts
Could you list the materials somewhere in the video like on the Bunnings website or something please
Tate Simons I’ll see if I can find the stuff on the website
Use metho instead of turps because turps leaves a residue where metho drys clean
Lachie Dixon ahhh I didn’t know that man, cheers for the info🙌
Reds in most of my boards
Hey what type of lubricant is it
I believe it’s called tri flow, I got it from the local bike store
Sick tip bro 🤙🏼
Travis Eaglesham glad you dig the video dude 🤘
Sean Enuks Yh bro 🤙🏼 loving the diy skate spot vids too, I got a channel too bro if u wanna check it out 🤙🏼
Travis Eaglesham appreciate that dude 🙌, sick man I just checked it out, are you from the north or the south? You sound northern but I could be wrong lol
Sean Enuks I live in south west of England but I’m from northern ierland 🤙🏼
Travis Eaglesham ahhh that must be it then dude, had me for a minute there
so good
Thankyou!
Andale Swiss !!
Damn swiss!
my gf gave me wheels and bearings idk what kind of bearings but it came from a zero deck and idk what kind of wheels i’m thinking it was a complete mayve
this is sick
never sponsored glad you dig the video!
is the mineral terpentine the same as acetone
Similar but different, but they will both do the job as good
Bone swiss all day
Please note! Not all bottles are acetone proof and will start shrinking and melt. Please be careful choosing your bottle if using acetone.
hey overcast is my local shop!
Say whats up to Woody for me next time you go in
@@SeanEnuks haha definitely once this quarantine is over
@Sean Enuks have you skated at Summerly before? cause i remember a guy who looks like you doing a smith or a feeble down the round rail at summerly and then tapping his board when i was finally able to land a shitty pop shuv up a bank 😂 i didn’t realise it might have been you cause i hadn’t watched your channel yet
Sick 🤙
bronson only rock them shieldless
I used to run reds shieldless a little while back
Bones big balls are fire
I totally forgot about those ones until now, although the name is hilarious
Brones
oh and what lube?
Ive used this Triflow lubricant, works really well for moving parts, I do believe it is bike chain lube lol
bones swiss will last you for years, they are def worth the money
Damn this is perfect what the hell
DEADx built not bought 😆
BONES BIG BALLS they go hard just for $25 USA
Damn i wish we had prices like that here in Australia
Sean Enuks thank god I work at my local skate shop so I technically only pay about $18 😂😂
I just use Bronson G3’s
Tate Simons lucky, I wanna get some G3’s lol
7:14 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ive heard of people drinking turps with orange juice lol
bones reds bearings always
Shakejunk lowrider bearings.
tyrone willis nice man, shake junt are so sick
was there really a point in making that bottle thing???
You could just pop your bearings into a cup and pour in the cleaning solution for sure, but the premise of this video was to show you guys how to make one of these kits which ultimately streamlines the process of cleaning your bearings and saves you from buying a new set each time your bearings start to fail
Have a swig brudda
zac mcgarrity 😂 just need the orange juice to mix
Bronson Raws
Reds
Praclip
Bones reds big balls
G2s
