Alot of people are going to tell you that the 10 ball is best. Because it is. It eliminates most vibe and is dead smooth. Next best thing would be a Dif-E-Yo KK. ---

The YYJ Speed bearing is actually a great bearing. It’s a 10-ball flat bearing, just like the One Drop offering, and has similar build quality. I wouldn’t bother swapping it. ---

I’m a fan of the Centre Trac because it helps (albeit, only a little bit) keep the string off those rather high walls. That said, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with the stock SPEED bearing. Yuki ---

For center track bearings, I like the Twisted trifecta in my DM2 (when I use it). But like everyone else says, the stock bearings is not “bad”. In fact I used the stock for months before switching over. ---

I have Terrapin X steel wing cut 8-ball bearings in all 4 of my DM2’s and they all play absolutely the best with that configuration in my opinion. I just got some 8-ball wing cut ceramics, so I’m contemplating swapping those into the DM2’s. What’s best is a matter of preferences. Ain’t nothing wrong with what your preferences are. ---

Something came out called the Center Trac X that has 10 balls.
