picked up a set of bones reds on the weekend. put them in, but for some reason they spin for like 2 seconds? Do they just need breaking in, or am I doing something wrong…

What I had hoped for was this kind of shit



EDIT: how the fuck do I embed Youtube videos?!

When I've had reds in the past they don't spin very fast and feel weird until you break them in which will take a good hard day of skating if there still not spinning after that it might be because the nuts are to tight and need loosening hope that helps mate.

With my first set of reds they were quite good but then proceeded to clean them following the instructions with them, which killed them. My second set (which I've now had for about 3 years+) I took the red shields off and they go for ages. I highly recommend you do the same.

could get some bones speed cream in them as well (no homo?)

reds usually take a little to break in I thought.

What shoes do people skate in these days?

In need of a new set-up, any suggestions? not looking to drop a load of cash, just something to roll about indoors with this winter.

Edit: Are these any good? http://www.rollersnakes.co.uk/product/320194-rollersnakes-skull-custom-build.html
