So far so good. Very smooth.
The available information on these bearings is confusing.1) RatVision on YouTube tells me these are the best bearings on the market in a video with [NOT SPONSORED] in the title. Then a couple of people on Reddit say he was paid by Oust to shill for them. I haven't been able to find any other evidence, concrete or otherwise, that this is the case.2) The Oust Bearings website appears to no longer exist, and retailers with them in-stock seem to be dwindling.3) A bunch of people here are talking about getting incomplete or otherwise very low-quality sets of bearings.Needless to say, as I was discovering all of this while waiting for my bearings to arrive, I tempered my expectations accordingly. I was fully prepared to return these right away and buy some Bronsons.My experience:I received a full, apparently new set of bearings that are very quiet when spun out of the box. On the board they ride very smoothly and I'm able to coast for a surprising distance. I'll update this review if something goes wrong after some more rides, but from what I've seen so far these seem like a good set of bearings for forty bucks.

Would be Good for Racing
Probably better than I need for my cruising board. Once you ride your board for a couple of minutes, then the bearings will be seated good enough so you can tighten your axle nut to have a firm fit against the spacers and align your bearings and not have any slop. These bearings do not come with spacers. So, use the ones you already have, or if building a new board, order some spacers when you order the bearings. The bearings come basically dripping with oil, so best to wipe them down with a paper towel or something before handling,

Not as good as BONES
I did a very deep research on top bearings, and I found some positive clues towards Oust bearings, including a skate channel on youtube promoting it. I tested it out and it came out that my Bones Reds Bearings are slighlty better. than Oust. If you want some cheap bearings but decently ok, you can go with Oust (even thoud Bones will probably give you better quality). For top quality ones do not even think on Oust. I am getting myself some Swisses this time. I thought I could get away from the hype, but the hype is real. Swiss will be the best option until some new tech comes up.

Bones Reds are better
I installed these bearings in 3 wheels out of 4 on my skateboard with the 4th wheel having bones reds in them. After a couple of weeks, these bearings started show signs of rust on two out of 3 wheels and overall became not very smooth. The bones retained their newness and seem to have stayed lubricated better.

BOOM first but then.......
When I just changed them, they ran smoothly and with one single push I can glide for really good amount distance.And of course I will be careful with it. I avoid slamming my board onto the ground, I rode my board for two days.All the sudden two of the bearings starts to make very loud noise and had became not so smooth as when it was new.They are great bearings but it s like a the tires of F1 car you gotta change all of them after few laps.

Love them for roller hockey
I've had these in my Bauer Vapor 1XR skates for 3 years now. They have been great. Super fast. No maintenance.

Awesome!
Great Bearings! Bought them based off online reviews for the company, and am very happy with the quality.

Buenos rodamientos, me esperaba algo mucho mas veloz.
Son unos buenos rodamientos, sin embargo he reemplazado unos Speed Demons Abec7 y he hecho suficientes pruebas de velocidad en la cual no muestran una mayor velocidad, pueden estos Oust mantener un poco mas la velocidad en lugares planos, pero no es lo que me esperaba.
