They come dry so you need to lube them before you use it. ---

> [@yoyospirit](#): > > They come dry so you need to lube them before you use it. Doesn’t make them more likely to break. I’ve had tons of YYF bearings, none of which have broken. I think you just need to be more careful with your stuff. None is best. They’re all good, just different. > [@SocksWthSandals](#): > > terrapin Please give reasoning to at least back-up your opinion. > [@arem250](#): > > Get a one drop 10 ball and you will never look back. Why? Preference wins again. ---

I’m going with Ape. I’ll say Flat bearing. (preference for me) But any bearing aside the full ceramic bearing is a good bearing. ---

I like the 10 ball because of the noticeable smoother spins, which I have personal experience with, but yes it is personal preference. However auzzybur asked for advice and I thats what I gave him, I never said that the 10 ball the “best bearing in the world” or that its the only bearing that should be bought and all the others are crap. I did say that he would never look back and what I meant by that was he would not regret spending the money on the 10 ball. ---

10 Ball or an AIRG and you’ll be good to go!
